This is closer to the true color. |
Project: Candle Flame 烛光Pattern: Candle Flame Scarf by Doris Formby (free Ravelry download)Yarn: Dax Alpaca, DK weight 100% alpacaYardage: 250 yards (2 balls), used every inchNeedles: Size 9Cast on: December 26, 2013
Cast off: December 31, 2013
Cost: About $25
Notes: I used size 9 needles for this DK weight yarn to give the scarf more loft, and to stretch out the limited yardage because I really wanted a scarf. It still turned out a bit short so I sewed the ends together and turned it into a cowl. This was knitted during my post holiday Downton Abbey marathon (I watched all three seasons on Amazon Prime in about a week). This cowl will always remind me of Lady Mary or Anna.
Happy Friday! Join the party on Andrea's blog, Tami's blog, and leave me a comment!

Gorgeous!!!!! I must mark that patten. I love it as a cowl.
I also love this as a cowl - and that colorway is just awesome. There are all kinds of FOs this week. :)
I love this as a cowl and the color is gorgeous! I always wonder about going up the needle sizes and how it will affect the pattern. I know, I know, it's all about gauge.
