LaLa Scarf


Presenting LaLa from the book Greetings From the Knit Cafe in all her glory pinned out and blocking.

I used Feza Kid Mohair, there are 275 yards in a ball. The label says it weight approx .88 oz, but my scale isn't that accurate, both the scarf and the remainder of the ball weight .4 oz, so it's about half of 275.... 137.5 yards for the scarf as it is in the pattern.

Next one I do, I will add more repeats and make it longer. As written in the book it really is just an accent scarf.

Edited to add: As Marie pointed out in the comments, this is made with 1 ball of yarn, the yarn is verigated so all the color changes come from the yarn itself. Thanks Marie for pointing that out.

Looks great! And didn't you say you did it all with one ball of yarn, the color changes are in the yarn itself, right?
