Serpentine Around the Petunias

Serpentine Scarf

Pattern: Lacy Serpentine Scarf by Heartstrings Fiber Arts

Yarn: Schaefer Anne purchased at Uniquities in Vienna, VA

Needle Size: 3.5mm (US size 4)

Started: April 2007

Finished: August 2007

Notes: There is a small mistake in the chart at the end of the pattern, but other than that, this scarf was a very easy knit. It is knit lengthwise so once you get in a rhythm, the lace is very easy. I took a long break with this scarf and picked it back up this month because I promised myself that I would finish it before I could start on my next project. This will be a great scarf for the winter and should go with a lot of my jackets. Next time, I would probably use a softer yarn as this is a little scratchy against my skin, even after washing.

I love that scarf! I have that pattern, too, and am so glad to see it still looks great with other yarn. It's perfect for variegated yarns, isn't it? Lovely!
