And so, last night another project bit the dust. After a month of knitting, I cast off my beautiful Noro Cash Iroha Celtic Scarf. And I love it. It is so soft, cushy and green! It should clash brilliantly with my blue winter coat [lol].
I cast this scarf on while I was holidaying in Oz just before Christmas. I couldn't knit it though because I lost my cable needle and couldn't buy another one in Queensland to save my life! I hasten to add that it was the middle of summer and totally out of season for knitting gear.
Finally in the early part of the new year, I tracked a cable needle down in Brisbane at Threads and More. What a beautiful little yarn and bead store.
I started knitting in earnest once I returned to Canada, but then I ran out of yarn. So I had to order one more skein from the US [amongst other things of course - like who can order just one skein of yarn!]. Well, that took 2.5 weeks to arrive!
But........ now my celtic scarf is done - a happy ending - and here's the finished product:
