I promised myself I would not participate in Yarn Along until my 400 yard scarf was completed.
I have been missing in action these last 2 weeks because I had not finished...
and today, it is still not finished...
* sigh *
400 yards of yarn is a lot, a real lot and I do things, other than knitting!
Here is how it looks today...
it is 64" long = 5 foot, 4 inches...the same height as me.
In this image, it looks a little prettier.
And here is a close up, showing some of the pretty detail in this pattern!
I really love the Baby Alpaca Yarn and the color,
but I am so ready to be done with this project!
I have not been reading, (I hang my head in shame), I am thinking it is just not my thing,
but I have not given up.

Good morning, Debbie. That is a long scarf, very pretty yarn and color. You will be finished soon. Have a happy day!
and what are you going to do with such a long scarf, Debbie? You have far more patience than I do... that's for sure. But, the work is beautiful. Great going.
I am so impressed with all your yarn and knitting, and especially enjoy your presentation of them when you share them! Happy knitting, and yarn along!
Debbie, it's lovely.....and you will be soooooo glad you stuck with it to the end on the next cold cold wintery day and you're cozied up in it. beautiful
Wow, your scarf is growing huge! You will feel so great and proud when you finally wrap it around your neck! Such a lovely texture.
Your scarf is beautiful and cozy looking. It looks so soft!
Your scarf sounds like my scarf! I fear I may be working on it for months. Yours looks so soft and pretty. It will be worth it in the end.
i'm 5'4" too. :)
Beautiful. You have a lot of patience to take on a project like this, but what an accomplishment! :)
xoxo
Hang in there. It's worth it. The scarf is beautiful.
Nice work. Love those birds, too.
It looks great!
Well it's not as long as me yet--68 inches. :-) It's pretty and so soft looking. Not everyone likes to sit and read books--Larry doesn't. But he reads up on things you're interested in, which I bet you do too.
I mean he reads up on things HE is interested in. lol
I think you're becoming a real pro at this knitting stuff!
Persevere my friend. The scarf is looking good. Reading is not everyone's cup of tea but sometimes you have to persevere with that as well.
I simply love alpaca and the colors in that scarf! It ought to keep someone nice and cozy.
Keep on going!! You are gonna be so proud of this when you finish! its looking great!
Wow that is a long scarf, that is how it is with my cross-stitching, I can work on that stuff for a very long time and it doesn't seem like I will ever be done, looks like your getting pretty close and it is looking terrific, great things take time, right!
I am not much of a reader either, I read the bible every day but that is about my extent, I use to read a lot more when I was younger, maybe if we didn't have all these other distractions I would have time to read more :)
Nice work Debbie. You've inspired me to finish my carbide this weekend. It's been almost done for much too long :-)
That should be cardie, Google is picking words as I type this on my Kindle lol.
Your handiwork is so beautiful. I hope you will model the finished project. I enjoyed all of the photos. Blessings and hugs!
