Rarely have I been so elated to finish a project. This is the "Pink Aura" scarf from One-Skein Wonders, for which I used TWO skeins of Manos del Uruguay's merino/silk blend in "Wildflowers". I opted to use a size 6 needle, instead of a 10.5 as the pattern called for, because I wanted a more dense fabric. Alas, that meant needing more yarn...and more time. This was intended to be a spring scarf, but that didn't happen (although this crazy weather is much more spring-like than summer right now!). This project has been my train knitting now for at least two solid months, and I must confess there have been several days where I couldn't even look at the thing, and either read or slept my way to and from work. But it is DONE, DONE, DONE now, and I can finally work on something else without this nagging me from my purse.
