I just finished Wavy (http://knitty.com/ISSUEwinter04/PATTwavy.html) yesterday when Hildie came to visit me! Its a BDay gift for my SIL.
I did it in Knitpicks' Elegance (http://knitpicks.com/yarns/yarn_Display.aspx?itemid=5420111), the color is Ash...
I loved working with this yarn....its SO soft and has a really nice SHEEN!
The best thing is that the pattern is reversible, and its squishy. It can stretch out a bit if one wanted to cover their ears, but its not BULKY.

Thanks everybody!! :heart:
Sascha...dont be scared. Its really nuthin but a k3 p3 pattern!
Liz....I DID use row counter. Its a 44 row repeat. But its still easy, because on all of the even rows, you just knit the sts as they appear.

That yarn appears aptly named, because that scarf does look quite elegant, Kelly. It is bee-u-ti-FUL! :D

Looks great Kelly. I am still working on mine for my sister for Christmas. I am on the fourth repeat. If I would quit making other things at the same time. :thinking: Mine isn't as pretty as yours because I just used some stash yarn for the one I am making but it is a pretty color.

Hey Kelly--I LOVE that scarf!! Is that a free pattern, and if so, where might I find it?? I really love the way it "waves"! It is lovely in that Ash Elegance--I love that yarn!! Good job!

Hi Trudy,
If you click on the word Wavy in KK's first post in this thread the pattern will come up. It's a Knitty.com pattern called Wavy (Duh) :doh: if you want to go about finding it that way.
Thanks for the info on the yardage, Kelly!
Happy Knitting :XX: :XX:

Thanks Mary!! I 'preciate that. ;)
I wasn't too sure about that pattern before because it looked so bulky. I really like it in the knitpicks yarn though!

Its not bulky at ALL in the Elegance! That's why I like it so much....love warmth, hate bulk.
