Yarn Along...

I am sure you thought it would never happen...
Quite frankly, I never thought it would happen either, but it did.
Can anyone believe that I finally finished the 
400 Yard Scarf??!!

Drum roll...Drum roll please...

I present to you, the 400 Yard Scarf!!

It's done...done...done.
Knitted, washed, blocked and dried, I am not sure I ever want to see it again.
No seriously, it is so soft and beautiful, I am going to put it away
for a special someone for Christmas.

So here it is, the monster blocked and drying...


much larger than the yoga mat but it stuck well to the carpet, so I made do.


Perhaps "my" best work to date...

I am thrilled that it is done.

I did start a new project, something much smaller, more my speed
and I will share that next week.
It may even be done!

I am joining Ginny at Small Things 
for
Yarn Along

Yay!!! It is gorgeous, all 400 yards of it! The texture, the color - everything is just spot on! And thank you so much for giving me the idea to use yoga mat for blocking, so perfect for long projects.

It's beautiful, Debbie! It's a good feeling of accomplishment when you finish a big project. After I do something like that, I like to turn to smaller projects too. :-)

I am so proud of you!!! You did it! It looks great. I have to put things away too when they have taken a long time. Then it feels so good to see it again later.
