Aaarrrrggghhhh-osy!
It's finally done! My Argosy scarf.I was really hoping it would be my final knit of 2006. Yesterday, I cast off and was ready to block, when I noticed a gaping error near the middle of the scarf. Aaarrrrggghhhh! It was one of those mistakes that I just couldn't live with. It would always be staring back, mocking me. So, New Year's Eve afternoon was spent frogging and re-knitting. I missed my self-imposed deadline, finishing it up today. Ah, well. Now it becomes my first knit of 2007.
Happy New Year!

Beautiful scarf! Congrats on finishing it, even after frogging!!
Oh no! And it had to be towards the middle. I said it once, but I'll say it again- so lovely!
I saw you live in Vancouver. I love that city, it's so beautiful! Sadly I've only been there once. I was happy to see others up as late as I am (it's now 1:44am) but now that I know you live on the other coast... I guess it's not so late for you. :)
It's beautiful-- well worth the effort of reknitting. the pattern hadn't really appealed to me before, but seeing yours, I might give it a try (but only if I have the yarn in stash).

BTW thanks for your kind words on my blog. Happy New Year!
Oh - I'm so sorry to hear that you had to frog parts of your scarf - but despite all the hassles you've had with it, it turned out so very beautiful! Great work!
