Spice Market Scarf

I tend to covet yarn. This is more financially responsible than hoarding, but mentally much more debilitating. I have a price range for yarn. And you can guess that every skein that is coveted is out of said price range.

Until you happily find them in the clearance bin.


I had my eye on this yarn for months. The line is called Aurora Borealis and this color is Spice Market. I was so taken aback that it would be on clearance for any reason. And thus started the first scarf  as part of this entrepreneurial project. First and absolute favorite. I go back and forth as to whether or not I want to sell it. The yarn is just so beautiful! I feel the lighting never does it justice.



It's an easy V-stitch that worked up fairly quickly. And I finally got a reason to use that crummy plastic hook I bought in Grenada.



The finished product!



Looping it three times is a bit of a stretch, but I love how fashionable this scarf is.



My only regret was not buying more skeins when they were available. But now I can covet this scarf instead of a skein of yarn. I might be beginning to see how this process should work.
