I actually finished a project!

Ok, so remember how January was supposed to be "Mating Month" and I would knit up mates for my lonely socks? Yeah. Too much new yarn in the stash to concentrate like that. However! I did finish a project, which is an awfully exciting accomplishment for me. I constantly knit, but rarely finish projects. It's a bad habit. I think that part of it is due to being worried that I will be unhappy with the finished project, so if I don't finish it, I can't be displeased with it, right? (myMariah sweater is a great example of this)

So, may I please introduce to you....



This is my lovely Mermaid scarf, in all its blocking glory. A close-up:


When I first saw this yarn, I immediately thought of mermaids. The greens and gold- just like sand and shells and seaweed and water. It's Crystal Palace Musique, color #9010, which is called "Toast." Gross! Horrible name! It should be Mermaid. Hence, it's my Mermaid Scarf.



There's always naughtiness a-brewin' here.

Your scarf lookse lovely! It's some of my favorite colors even. My dog also thinks anything laying spread out on the floor is where she is supposed to lay so I understand the cat battles :-)

That Musique creates a gorgeous fabric. I once used some in a bluish colorway, but this one is gorgeous (toast name and all :-))
