Loops started nagging me almost a month ago to make a blog post. Obviously I don't really listen to him. He should know by now I do things in my own time and cannot be rushed into anything. Not to mention I had nothing to blog about. I needed to finish a project or have something exciting happen before bothering to post anything. Sadly, nothing exciting has happened, but I did finish something I've been working on for a bit. So...
At Christmas I promised my favorite sister I'd knit her a new scarf so she could keep warm and cozy while hiking and whatnot. Soon after Christmas I purchased the yarn for her scarf (Loops picked the color.) and got to knitting. I soon started regretting my choice of pattern because seed stitch is so tedious and boring, but I'm glad I stuck with it because this is one warm and cuddly scarf.

I love infinity scarves. They are very easy to wear either double wrapped as above or worn draped around the neck like below.

I hope Stacy likes it. Now just to wash it and get it ready to send to her.
