Not Slipping Back into Old Haddits *update*

I received my Ravelry invitation on Monday so I have been trying to get to grips with that.



Unfortunately I miss spelt my username, hitting T instead of Y so instead of being knittyknackynoo I'm down as knittyknacktnoo, rubbish! But if you go onto the people page and type in knittyknackynoo you can still find me. So if you are on Ravelry come say hello.

Ignore that last bit. The lovely people at Ravelry have corrected my miss spelt username for me.

Finished Backyard Leaves Scarf.



Pattern Backyard Leaves, Scarf Style.
Yarn Sirdar Snuggly Baby Bamboo DK, colour #136 - Tulip.
Needles 4.5mm.
Finished Measurements 12cm wide, 200cm long.

With hindsight I should have ether cast on more loosely than I did or used a cast on method that had more stretch to it, because after each half had been pressed, the cast on row was narrower then the rest of the scarf, so I had to improvise slightly when I was sewing the two pieces together.

It took a while to get off the ground but after I'd translated the pattern chart into text I found it much easier to understand.
