Clay's Scarf.

Clay wrote in to remind me that I have a scarf in progress for him. I started it weeks ago while we were in Philadelphia for the weekend. I bought the yarn from Sophie's Yarns in the fabric district. I absolutely love this shop. While I was there I met Lindsay and she helped Clay and I pick out yarns for the scarf. This scarf is worked with 5 strands of yarn held together. Unfortunately, I did not keep the yarn wrappers so I don't know which yarns I'm using. I know there is a wine colored Cascade 220, two strands of tweed yarn in orange, a black bamboo yarn, and another yarn that is wine colored and spiraled in a lighter colored wine yarn.

I'm out of that spiraled yarn, unfortunately. I thought I'd found it on the Purl website. The yarn arrived today. Not only is it the wrong yarn, it's pink. Not gonna work for the scarf. I added some Manos de Uruguay burgundy yarn, but I'm not really sure I like it.

The scarf is being knit on size 17 needles. Clay wants it to be quite long and I think I'm about a third of the way done. I promised him this would be the next project I finish. I will keep my word.
