So here it is... The Strathcona by Jane Richmond. I must say... I am loving this pattern. It is so light and airy and the v- shape of it is so unique. It will be perfect for summer.
I'm not sure if I have enough yarn to make the full sized scarf but I just wanted to try it. So I chose to use a Mericash fingering weight yarn by Punta Yarns (80% merino/ 20%cashmere) in "baby pink." It will be a bit shorter but I think it will look great. And since it's such an open mesh it will probably give a little warmth without being too stifling. So it'll be perfect for our cool Vancouver Island breezes :)
So far it's knitting up pretty smoothly and SO soft!
So once again... Great pattern, Jane! ~.^
Edit: Sadly, I realized (with a lot of help) that I had knitted the mesh pattern incorrectly so I will keep it going this was but this will now be known as "Strathcona, Gone HORRIBLY Wrong" *sigh*
