Pattern: Bright Stripes from Scarfstyle
Started: Sept 11, 2007
Finished: Sept 22, 2007
Yarn: Malabrigo...from way back when...left overs from this...this...and this!
Adjustments: None really...while casting on I lost count...not that it matters how many stitches you cast on, but this scarf has 285 stitches...making it nice and LONG! I wasn't really sure about the pom poms. I was actually going to just make a fringe...but decided to go with the pom poms...I am glad I did, I really like it! The actual pattern calls for 5 on each end, but I felt 3 was enough.
There is nothing special here...just a nice simple knit. I used the crochet cast on so that I wouldn't have two different edges on the scarf. The crochet one seems to match the cast off nicely.
This is perfect for fall and winter...if it ever arrives.
I am trying to wait patiently for fall...at least now I am ready with a great scarf!

Another great scarf, and the pom poms look fantastic. You seem to be knitting them so quickly too.
that scarf makes me excited for fall too!
Cuuute! I can't seem to stop thinking about scarves either - must be wishful thinking for fall...
I'm trying to get a good look at the scarf but all I can see is that jacket. I think I love that jacket, oh and I like the scarf too =)
Very cute! Those pom poms are a nice surprise on the ends!
What a great scarf! And you look nice in it too!
cute scarf -- and I love that jacket!
wow, neat scarf!
I absolutely love this scarf! The pictures are great! Wow! I'm not a pom-pom person, but it works very well with this scarf.
It is cute! Love the colours you used and I agree I like your three pom-pom version better than the original five.
The scarf is awesome! I have that book but I don't remember seeing that scarf; I'll have to go dig it out now. The jacket is fab too. :)
really cute - i love the unexpected color combination. Somehow really works with the cool texture and the poofballs.
wow that scarf is really nice. i never liked the one in the book. i'm glad to see it worked up in different colors.
very nice! I like the color choices and the creative use of leftovers!
Love the new scarf! it's so rustic and cozy, but looks fantastic with your cha cha leather jacket!
I love the scarf! It's so great looking! Way to go!
Very cute scarf! The colors are wonderful together, and I love the pompoms:)
