Kureyon scarf
I restarted the scarf out of Noro Kureyon #153. I'm much happier with it this time!
I cast on 34 stitches on 5 mm needles, and I'm knitting a simple k1p1 rib, alternating two rows from one ball and two rows from another ball. This time, I also payed some attention to where I started each ball, aiming for a little more contrast between the stripes. I think I succeeded! I hope to finish it tonight, so I can give it a bath (which will soften it up tremendously) and it will be dry tomorrow morning.
This is another picture of the Kureyon scarf I made last year, in # 124.
The colors in this one are much more similar than the colorway I'm using now. I like them both.

I LOVE the #124! For these scarves you used two skeins of the same colorway, and simply made sure to join the second ball at a different point in the color sequence, right? That's so clever.

Both scarfs are great. Isn't it amazing which effects you can achieve in such an easy way?

Lovely! I have three balls of Kureyon waiting to be knit up into a scarf and I might just use this striping pattern. Very nice!

Lovely scarves! Love the colours! May I ask what's the length of the scarf after you wash them? Thanks!
