1 skeins of Brooks Farm Yarn in
  • Fall colors (exact colorway unknown)

  • fiber is 60% Super Wash Wool / 20% Silk / 20% Viscose

Modifications: I was going to put a border around the entire scarf but nixed that idea in favor of having a longer scarf.

Gorgeous! I absolutely love it. You make me want to take out my brooks farm yarn and make something with it instead of just sniffing it and putting it down again!

Did you use the flash trick? The colors really show up great.

Yep - the flash trick works wonderfully to show the colors better. Thanks again for posting about that.

But now - I'm wondering what to make next....
