Project Completed - Entrelac Scarf

I finished my entrelac scarf this weekend. If you've never done entrelac knitting, it's a very slow process of short rows and increasing or decreasing to knit sideways to get the look of woven knitting. If I had knit this scarf in straight stockinette (basic knitting stitch), it probably would have taken me 1/4 of the the time.

It is 72 inches long done in Noro Kuryeon wool:

That is the most BEAUTIFUL scarf I have ever seen. Not only are the colours great, but the whole effect of the knitting is fantastic. I love it. What a great knitter you are.

Thank you anonymous, I love the scarf too! And even though the progress was slow, I felt the overall effect was well worth it! Now we just need some cold weather so I can wear it!

Beautiful! It turned out beautiful! And Eco's expression cracks me up. Secretly, I think she loves it, too.
