I started the Mystery Scarf back in March 2012, and finished in December! It was an impromtu buy, I loved the wool and wanted a project to fill some inspiration gap, so I wasn’t sure what it was going to finish up as. But now that it is finished, I am very much in love!

The only thing I think I did wrong was my blocking technique. I’m new to blocking and for this springy woolly yarn I probably shouldn’t have squashed it with the iron. Oops, live and learn. I’ve since learned the proper non-quishy technique and I was amazed – it really does seems to work like magic to me!

Being an Australian Summer around here, it’s totally the wrong season for modelling scarves. Perhaps I’ll suck it up and put the air con on for an Inappropriate Seasonal Knitwear shoot.

Yay! Stay creative
