I’ve mentioned it before but there is this scarf. It’s a red scarf, and this scarf? I started it during the 2004/2005 Northern Hemisphere snow season. It’s come with me all across America, and all over New Zealand. It came with me to Canada, and Europe and while I was in Italy? In a little Tuscan Villa?

I finished it. Five years in the making, and it’s finally done.

It has tassels, and is brilliantly warm and is delightfully red and it’s FINISHED!! I’m absolutely stoked. So, it’s a little bit wobbly, and some of the stitches are loose, and the width of parts of it is a little variable, but I think it’s incredibly rustic. And all those little details give it character.

I’m immensely pleased that it’s finished. Perhaps I’ll make another :)

Number 49? Done!

    It’s adorable! And it looks incredibly long and cushy.
    Also, love the background of the photo. If that’s NZ, it looks amazing.

      Haha, it is super super long. I told myself that it was finished when I ran out of the red wool I brought for it :P And alas! That’s not New Zealand – it’s Tuscany, in Italy. It’s where I finished the scarf! The blog posts will catch up with my travels, promise!

    Wowy wow wow WOW! You made that? I’m in love! Big fat scarves are among the most perfect things in the world. Neck blankets. I love them! (I may also have a closet full of them)

      Ha, yes I did! It took me forever, but I’m glad I made the effort. I’m considering making another, but haven’t done so yet!
