Ellen's Scarf

Since the colorways in Noro Kureyon and Noro Silk Garden are long, the striping affect by alternating rows with two different skeins, using a 1 x 1 rib, is infinitely entertaining. I finished the scarf I was knitting for Larry. I used Noro Kureyon #185 and #172, size 8 needles. I was so smitten by this scarf that I started one for myself using more #172 and then some odds and ends of leftover skeins of Kureyon from other projects. It's like the stripes have possessed me. There's some sort of mind-control going on here. I can't stop knitting!
Today is Natalie's birthday! She's galivanting around town today having a fine time, I'm sure. A few of us plan to meet up over the weekend and celebrate some more! Happy Birthday, Sweetie!
