I finally finished my scarf..ahem thingy.
The result wasn’t exactly what I had in mind. I made it wider than need be and I’d run out of yarn and it was a colour the shop no longer stocks. It had taken me so long to get this far that I would have just been happy to call it a day in the name of experience. However, this afternoon, after casting off I decided to turn it into something a little different. I remembered I had some buttons which would match perfectly (green/black, a wee bit retro) so sewed them on and it’s now a collar/scarf thing (I’m sure there is actually a name for it) and I’m actually pretty happy with it after all. Think I’ll even wear it out in public. I have it on now and it’s rather cosy too.
However, I think my knitting days are over. I just don’t have the time nor patience for it.
