Sideways IroWell, since AOL has crapped out on me in the middle of catching up on my DR mail, it’s as good a time as any to show the new scarf. This was another skein of the Noro Iro, but in a different colorway, #45. (Colorway is fancy yarn talk for color.)

I think this yarn shows the striping better (and for a really good shot of it, you can see one of the worst pictures taken of me) when done in long bands instead of short bits. The last one I did in this was knit in a long narrow strip. This one, I did lengthwise, casting on 150 stitches onto #11 needles and then just knitting back and forth until the yarn was gone.

When my daughter saw it, she said “rainbow scarf!” and claimed it as her own. Apparently it doubles as a jump rope. Well, as long as someone’s enjoying it!
