I am a decisive individual.
I don't hem & haw about much, even big decisions.
I am rarely wishy-washy.
That rare moment is now. Ugh.
I cast on a cowl with a squishy skein of Mushishi last fall. I must have put it away because I wan't thrilled with it.
I'm still not.
Love the pattern, but the ribbing was too loose for my liking.
This version was sfrogged. (notice I cropped out my chubby white legs, as promised)
I cast on a scarf with it next.
Meh...
I'm still deciding if I like it or not. I like scarves that I can double wrap around my neck and this yarn will itch even with the silk blended in.
I could finish the scarf and give it away as a gift, add it to the Dice Game at Christmas, but when you buy ONE skein of yarn for $40...I'd really perfer to have this for meyself.
Stay tuned.
I think I have to break down and BUY the pattern I'm leaning toward.
Happy Humpday knitters! Joining with Ginny and Tami for WIP Wednesday.
Later!

The color is so pretty good luck deciding what to make with it.
ReplyDeleteI really REALLY like the way that scarf is turning out. I know it would look super cute on you in the winter. :)
ReplyDeleteIts stockinette aaaaaalllllll the way to the other end of the scarf, then there is 3 more repeats of the F&F. Will NOT be a fun Summer knit.
DeleteI have knit a cowl and a hat with Mushishi and I was told by the recipients that it wasn't itchy. I was a bit worried since my dad is bald, but he says it's ok. I like the pattern you are using now. I think it shows the colors nicely. But if you aren't thrilled with it I would find something that makes you smile when you knit it!
ReplyDeleteI like the feather-and-fan scarf as well, gorgeous yarn!
ReplyDeleteI love the new scarf :) keep at it and it could make a great gift if it's not your taste.
