I just received an order to knit and throw out of the same yarns as this scarf I'm sure she just wants it as pure decoration...I would think the the hairy bits would drive one mad(or maybe that is just me,lol) anyhooo....I'm now completing a boa that a friend is giving to a fashion editor of a magazine...so if she likes ..it could be used as an accessory on a shoot!....still haven't finished the rebecca sweater...or really made a dent in the colinette throw.....I am so NOT inspired by the colorway of it...I can"t wait for my special order from Koigu to arrive(they colored it in camouflage colors(I know, very appropriate for these times)...so if anything jumps off stateside.. I will be able to throw down in style...but in the meantime..I'm soooo looking forward to learning how to dye my own yarn from Rob and Matt@ threadbare!!!...I wish they lived in the "nati"...then we could form some type of yarn/knitting commune....ala "Waco"..but without the guns and having to "sleep" with the leaders,lol.....but then again they are rather cute......hmmmm....


ohhh..now why didn't I think of this!!!
