Ruffles!

I’m procrastinating finishing some homework (for my last class ever!), so I thought I’d update with pictures of some fun scarves that I made recently.  I’ve been eying this pattern for a while, so when my mom asked for a ruffled scarf I knew this was it.  I went with Malabrigo Silky, and made one for each of us.

I picked out a beautiful teal color for mine, and started it first since I had to wait on my mom’s yarn.  It only took about a week to knit, and it was really a lot of fun.  Shortly after I finished, I got a great haircut and temporary curls, which went great with the scarf.  The kitties also helped me with some modeling. 🙂

My mom’s was in a really nice red color (Ravelry Red!), and I made it a little bit longer than mine.  It took me a little bit longer since I’ve been busy with class, but still only a couple of weeks.  She hasn’t seen it in person yet, but Buster was happy to model it for her.

I loved this pattern and yarn, and I will definitely use them both again!  And now – back to work…
