FO: Chunky ZigZag Scarf

It may have taken longer than expected, but I finally finished my ZigZag scarf (page 122)! I really love how it turned out, too. There were no surprises and the pattern is well-written and easy to follow. I even like the clear reference photographs in the back of the book; so important for this scarf because of the intarsia refresher.

I would definitely knit this visually appealing pattern again, since part of the fun is picking out complementary colors and watching them move to and fro. I tell you what: two skeins of Cascade 128 never looked so fetching! Read more about the particulars of this project at my blog, Yarn Is My Metier.

You Zig, I'll Zag

As soon as I finished knitting a cabled tweed hat in Cascade 128, I decided I needed an interesting scarf to pair with it. Enter ZigZag (page 122), a wonderfully easy illusion of
hide-and-seek scarfery.

I'm only 3 repeats in but I'm loving it! If you want to read more about the finished hat and the scarf in development, pop on over to my blog, Yarn Is My Metier.

So happy this fantastic collection of scarves came out!
