Looks like such soft comfortable wool. It's a cold, spring day here... I could use that right now!

Hi Staci,

This is quite the scarf I must say!
I've never heard of an infinity
scarf before but judging by your
pictures I'd say the name is pretty
apt. It looks like a cozy, warm
scarf and I love the flecks of
white in the gray wool.

Looks like the ripping and the
restarting didn't deter you from
knitting at all. And progress
is what I see every time that I
visit here. Can't wait to see
what you'll come up with next.

Cheers!

I just love your infinity scarf! I think it is so cool that it is recycled from a sweater. I tried that once, but unfortunately it didn't go well. I tried to unravel it, but all I got was very small pieces! Oh well. I think I will give it another try someday. I love the idea!
