A quick knit

If you follow this blog, you'd think that I never knit and never completed a project. Truth is, I always have a sock in my purse and I'm always working on something but I don't always take the time to photograph my work and post.
I bought or received (I can't remember) some Malabrigo Rasta yarn this fall and I was scheduled to make some kind of mobius thing. Turns out I'm really averse to twisting stitches that are in the round. Probably relates to my sock knitting persona who spends hours making sure that I don't twist my wool in the round. Anyways, I decided to knit a scarf for my sister Monica. The colours were very appealing and the pattern was simple. While there were only 11 repeats, I was completely unable to memorize it. I remember working on the scarf at the cottage, sipping coffee while the snow accumulated outside of my window. Ah, idealic knitting days.
Anways, the scarf turned out beautiful in my eyes.
I blocked it and everything.
