Three hour scarf

My daughter has been at me to use some of the beautiful yarn she gave me for my birthday last week and she specifically wanted me to try the Triana first. I did want to finish a pair of black lacy fingerless gloves for her in the daylight today but decided to give this new (to me) yarn a go. Three hours later, I have this very pretty scarf. Sorry my model is just a coathanger but my real one is at work !!

The picture on the front of the pattern leaflet gives a better idea of what it looks like on somebody.

I have to say this was a fun project but now I must get on to that second glove!


A few hours later and thanks to my Ott Lite, all finished and ready for DD to wear to work tomorrow -
These were done with a 4.00mm hook in black Panda Machinewash 8ply crepe (100% pure wool). Had to break into a second 50g ball for the last three rounds.

    Is the link for the pattern. I made a mistake on the collar and then had to follow my mistake through to the sleeves. It really is JC45A. The next one I make will definitely be done RIGHT. ;-) (I hope.)
