Chevron Scarf II

Tuesday, April 15, 2008

I made Chevron Scarf - in the same fashion as the first one - for a friend's birthday, using the remainders of Sundara Yarn's Bartlett Pear (made entrelac socks with it), and a skein of this Koigu in a colorway that is both beautiful and craptastic, depending how far you stand. I really am not sure whether my friend is going to like the color combo. Us knitting insiders know that for the Chevron Scarf, the more the colors clash, the better (er right? I think?)...but will she feel the same way?

Lookit all the pretty colors.

I asked Bunny, always the most willing and photogenic fashion rabbit, to model it for me.

I think it'll do. As soon as I remove all the cat hairs.

I think it looks great, and love the color combo. But wow, I could never get either of my boys to wear a scarf. It looks positively dashing on Bunny, though!

It'll do beautifully. That is, of course, if you can get Bunny to give it up.

OK, I think I am officially obsessed with your cat now. And how is it that you can whip that chevron out so quickly, and with no curling? Do tell...

I don't even like the colors as individual entities, but damn, they somehow work together.

Oh, Bunny - I wish you would teach my kitties how to be well-behaved knitwear models.

Oh my god, that is such a great photo shoot with Bunny! That last photo just kills me- he looks so ready for his close up! Your chevron scarf is so awesome, even the cat loves it.

Oddly enough, I don't like the colors close up, but from a distance they're fab. Glad you're blogging more--I missed you.

I need to know your secret to making your cats stand still for photographing! I think the scarf is fabulous. I hope your friend likes it!

It is like, but I like the colours (always a fan or yellow and purple) and it would look great with a black top.

I don't think the colors are too much at all - I think it's perfect! And Bunny is just a superb model, of course!

Looks great!

I can't believe the customer service you received from the store you bought the KPPPM from. They lost me as a customer too. But sounds like a great sale! :)
