My “Summer of Startitis” is winding down with another finished project:
Pattern: Elm Row by Anne Hanson
Yarn: Knitting Notions Classic Merino Supersock – this was a very enjoyable yarn to knit with. It’s very “springy,” and in combination with this pattern, provided an addictive knit…when I wasn’t distracted by other projects!
Needle: 3.25 mm/ U.S. 3
Modifications: Since I used a heavier yarn than called for, I only knit (3) repeats across instead of the (4) the pattern calls for. I worked the number of repeats down the length the pattern calls for, making a longer scarf than the original.
(As a side note, I was at my LYS today and saw – and fondled – some of the Niji recommended in the pattern…it was a bit difficult to walk away from it. But I really don’t need two Elm Rows!)
I was pattern shopping at knitspot the day before yesterday and this didn´t get my attention. But seeing it in this pic surely does, it´s much more beautiful in this colourway and the pattern comes out so much better. ( I suggest you sell your pic to Anne!)
Your scarf is very pretty. I love the Knitspot patterns and will eventually do this one.
