UPDATE!!! 28's Cousin 53 is FINISHED!!!

YAY!!! I finished it..........

 This scarf was tons of fun to knit!!! I can see myself knitting this again and again. It's only 53 rows, alot of bang for the buck so to speak. OK here are the details........

The pattern: 28's Cousin 53! Scarf version II by Lynne Ashton found on Ravelry

The luscious yarn!

Yarn: Sweet Georgia Superwash DK Colorway: Rosebud
 Needle: I deviated from the pattern and used a Size #8

I lusted over this yarn since it came into my LYS. I just had to have it, of course I had no idea what I was going to knit with it, but nevertheless I added it to my stash. I didn't take long to find the perfect pattern. 28's Cousin 53! had been in my Ravelry library for awhile and then it hit me! Eureka! I had found a match for this luscious, lusty, lovely yarn.

I have to say I am over the moon with this scarf, I think it just might be my favorite project so far.

Blocking

Hope you can see the color variation

The pattern says "no need to block" but I chose to wet block as it had puckers at the cast on, probably because I used the 'cable cast on' for the first time ever and it was kinda tight...blocking cured this.

Knit on! my friends..........
