ruffles scarf

Ok it took me 2 years but I finally completed this thing. The short rows drove me crazy and it was hard to see progress. But overall, it was an easy knit. I originally went to Yarniverse in Memphis to buy some Classic Elite Premiere, which they didn't carry, and the owner recommended Garnstudio Angora Tweed as a replacement. A nice yarn, but far too bulky for this scarf once I finished it. It will still be a great scarf come winter (if the record breaking 100 degree heat for 2 straight weeks ever goes away!)

This scarf was completed about two years ago using five skeins of the Knit Picks' Merino Style in Asparagus. I forgot I had knitted this awhile back and figure mind as well mentioned it now.
