I actually did finish another project on the road...Trinity, traveling vine scarf is done. The pattern looks good on both sides, imo.
When I ordered the STR on impulse, I didn't ask about the difference between medium and light weight, and ordered the medium weight which was way too thick for socks. I started the Here and There Cables scarf from Wrap Style, but cast on 18 stitches less then recommended on size 6 needles, ending up with a very narrow, thick and somewhat stiff "neck sock". It somehow does not seem appropriate for a scarf, but between the color and the wonderful pleasure of the yarns feel, smell and and color (County Clare), I just can't stop knitting this.
Today's sky at dusk made into a mosaic with Flickr Toys, just because it's so much fun. The moon shot was "enhanced" with automatic photo fix. It is amazing how all this sky action goes on simultaneouly!
I had a fun night with the Aloha Knitters stitchin' and bitchin'. Knitting is way better the booze, heh. No hangover and we still are witty, philosophical and funny:) but we plan to try both booze and knitting soon!

Great scarves! I love the colors on the 2nd one.
Gawd, these scarves are great, both of them! I see, pic #2 is the one you mentioned in your comment being a bit stiff - but gosh, it looks so cozy! Perhaps you should also try what I'm about to do with my stiff cabled one - tossing it into warm water (about 40C) and adding a bit of shampoo and/or conditioner - this should soften it up just enough to make it feel even better to the skin! The colors are so gorgeous - and so are the ones of your sky pics, gosh, they're stunning!
Wow, what beautiful sky pics! Oh my, and the yarn is just as lovely!
Oh that scarf is soo pretty. I can understand why you can't stop knitting that yarn.
