WIP, Weep

Why, yes, that is the item I was working on a few days ago.
Sort of.

Actually finished the scarf. Kept telling myself it looked fine.

It didn't. Too floppy. Ugly edging. This yarn is too good for so-so knitting.

Stifled a sob, found the woven in end, attached it the yarn ball winder, and back to the drawing board.



Still going to be a scarf. Still using the same stitch. This time I am knitting it side to side. 188 stitches per row is a lot, but there will be so many fewer rows;)

Yes, I know I should have made a better swatch the first time around.
