One Day

One day that's all it took to knit up a very quick project...Ribs & Ruffles Scarf. I don't usually knit scarves using bulky yarns, but what do you knit when you only have one ball of bulky. The yarn was Katia Studio that I received in a goody bag over 2 years ago. I don't have any good things to say about this yarn...not soft, only 106 yards, variegated both in colors & dimensions. The only good was I didn't pay any $$ for the ball...

I do like the pattern though and would happily knit it again in something softer & possibly variegated. Simple to memorize & mindless to knit which is the perfect combo for TV knitting while watching Hokie Football...
