Midwest Moonlight


I have had Scarf Style for about a year and believe it or not, this is the first scarf I made from this lovely book. After I was about 40% of the way done, my husband expressed interest in this scarf so I accelerated its place in my queue--concentrating on it instead of making it third in line meant it got finished MUCH faster, although it still took quite awhile to finish.
He wanted the scarf to be wide and long, so I blocked it as much as I could, gaining about 4 inches in width (it's now about 13 inches wide) and about 10 inches in length, to 70 inches. The blocking gave it a pretty, more open look too. I'm quite pleased with the result and hope he is too!

    Oh, that is pretty. I made Midwest Moonlight in a pale blue...

    But it really does seem to be a long knit! Took me a long time to finish and I was working on it pretty solidly.
