While shopping for birthday gifts for a mutual friend, I dragged everyone into Noe Knit. I simply could not pass up the opportunity to go into a yarn shop, no matter that I really had no intentions to buy something. I just wanted to browse and touch the fibers...
While there, Cho decided he wanted me to knit him a scarf. A very particular scarf, a manly scarf, with a specific texture and pattern. He picked out four skeins of Noro's Kureyon yarn as he told me that his scarf had to begin with a point and end with a point and have a raised diamond-lattice pattern along the length of it. To make sure I understood his vision, he later drew out the design for me. haha
Yarn: Noro Kureyon
Needles: US 7 (4.5mm)
Pattern: Original
Well, when Adam took this picture, Cho was more interested in posing for the camera then giving me a detailed picture of the scarf. Typical ;D The scarf is textured with twisted stitches in a diamond-lattice pattern. It does begin and end with a point. I don't quite remember how I did the increases at the beginning, else I would have posted the pattern by now. Hopefully, sometime this week I'll have the scarf in front of me to take more pictures and get the pattern down...
It actually took me a ridiculous amount of time to finish this scarf. But I finally did--in time for the San Francisco winter. (I have a couple of other scarves that I started at least two years ago and haven't finished... argh!)
