I was looking through some knitting books at the library the other day. It's a really good way to get my knitting book fix without spending any money. Anyway, I was flipping through Magical Knitting, and decided to use the Moebius strip idea for my next Art & Souls scarf. I really like the cabled scarves I've made so far, but I get the feeling that the shop owner would like it if I made something with a little more emphasis on design.
I joined the three longest sections of my Denise circular needles and cast on what felt like a million stitches. I'm planning on doing a garter stitch section on each side, then a ribbed section in the middle -- except of course the ribs will be running horizontally when you wear it.
I wasn't sure how my design idea would turn out, so I decided to use the yellow yarn that I didn't like too much. I've cast on about four times with this yarn, but nothing looked good. I am beginning to think that certain yarns are just meant to become certain things. Well, this yellow yarn was destined to become this Moebius scarf. It's bulky yarn on thick (10 1/2) needles, so I'm almost done. Completed object pics tomorrow? I think it can be done!
