Coming In Waves


After knitting and unraveling a couple of times I finally decided to use colors suggested in the pattern for this scarf. And I must say that I am quite surprised that they worked so well together. A rainbow and some muddy color actually found each other in waves of wool.

I started out with the color EZ and the EQ. That really looked liked mud. Then a magenta solid color and the EQ - did not work either.

Newer doubt a winning team...

Anyway, I loved knitting this. Easy and yet a little concentration now and then. The long color changes in the yarn made it a little exciting too.

One thing that is challenging is to get the skeins of Kauni to end and start in the same color flow.

There was a lot of ball winding added to this project.

I always get an extra skein of the yarn to be sure to get the color floats right. That seems to work.

This is one of those projects that is a little sad that I have already knitted. I enjoyed it so much that I could knit it once again. Maybe I will...

There is no harm in repeating a good thing

    Wauv, så har du jo lige endnu et fedt tørklæde, kauni er et super garn med smukke farveskift, men jeg ville sådan ønske de lavede det en anelse tyndere, men ikke som lace.

    Så flott det ble! Jeg blir litt skeptisk når det er feil i oppskriften, særlig når det ikke er rettet opp etter at 148 stk har strikket det på Ravelry. Det er ergelig. Men resultatet her ble jo bra da!
    Ha en strålende dag!

    Lækkert og flot :)
    Jeg kan også undre mig over, at en fejl i en opskrift ikke bliver rettet. Især hvis man er blevet gjort opmærksom på den. Godt du fik hjælp og fik strikket alligevel :)

    Se det blev lækkert. Det er sjovt, som det kan arbejde sammen, når farverne er de rigtige.
    Det ser ud til at sommeren lader vente på sig, at dømme efter dit overtøj:)
