Twelve inches...

[fajrdrako]

commodorified gave me alpaca yarn for Christmas, and knitting needles, and suggested a pattern to work on, a wraparound moebius scarf that can also go over the head. It's a beautiful shade of blue, maybe the UCLA blue on the Wikipedia chart.

I practised and I practised and I practised. On red wool intended for that purpose.

And then last week I started work on the alpaca. I got a little lost in the pattern at one point and thought I could brazen it out by fixing it later, but no, it was getting a bit too free-form. So yesterday I unravelled about 4" and continued.

Today I realized it's about 12" long already.

I am not a brilliant knitter¹ but this is fun.
