Pattern: Argosy Scarf from Knitty
Gauge: ~5 stitches/inch after blocking
Completed: September 15, 2007
Finished Size: 6 ½” x 64”
Mods:
I added an extra increase to make the scarf wider since my fingering weight yarn is a little lighter than the pattern’s DK or sport weight. But, I didn’t knit as many repeats as I didn’t want a six-foot scarf. I blocked it fairly strongly to open the lace.
Working now on spinning some laceweight merino/tencel for a larger stole. And I'm knitting up a
Forest Canopy Shawl with some BFL from
Sakina Needles.

They are both gorgeous! I especially love the forest canopy coloring. Can't wait to see that done.
Very, very nice.
I adore the colors in the canopy shawl! Your Argosy is great! I need to make one of those too
