playing with yarn in the middle of the night

Seed stitch scarf

I’ve got a much better photo of the scarf now. I think I may be getting somewhere with the photo quality. (Or maybe this one’s a fluke.) I seem to have managed to get everything more or less right here, good lighting, background that isn’t almost the same color as the item (it’s the long-sleeved button-up shirt I keep wadded up in my backpack/purse for emergencies LOL), managed not to jolt the camera in mid-photo and blur everything. I’m all proud here.

Anyway, photo. Clickable for full-size picture and details:

I used almost exactly two balls of Microspun that I had in the stash. I’ve been seriously dedicated to using up the stash lately seeing as we’re not well-off to begin with and the price of gas is making yarn buying expeditions an impossibility. But I have a decent stash that’ll keep me going for a while. It’s definitely not huge, but it’s enough to keep me busy for a while.

Anyway. I was talking about the scarf, right? When I started getting toward the end of the second ball, I dithered a bit about whether to leave enough to edge it or just make the scarf as long as possible. I decided the edges were neat enough for my liking (could be better, but reasonably neat) and went with having a longer scarf. It’s really cuddly and nice, almost makes me wish for chilly weather. Almost, but not quite, because I just can’t bring myself to wish away these nice 75-80° days we’re having here…
