My So-Called Scarf

I made the popular "So-called Scarf" as a little gift for a friend of mine who appreciates a nice, handknit wool accessory.

I like the herringbone pattern and once I got going, I found it to be an easy knit. I followed a tip from someone on Ravelry who found a YouTube clip showing a slightly easier way to knit it and get the same result. It took two skeins of Manos del Uruguay to make a scarf long enough to wrap twice around the neck (shown here wrapped just once around the neck of my ever so patient husband).

Next on the list of knitting WIPs: some baby knits, including a striped blanket and a few other wee goodies for the new little one who'll be arriving here in the spring!
