Using up stash is a good thing. Using up little bits of stash is also a good thing. Perhaps my new scarf should be named Good Thing. That would be appropriate. However, I refer to it as Little Ends.
Little Ends because when knitting with lots of little bits of color means that there are lots of little ends to weave and snip.
A L.O.T of little ends.
Doing this much weaving and snipping is not high on my list of ways to spend a lazy afternoon. Eagle-eyed viewers will see that round wad of golden foil in the upper left corner of the photo. That, gentle reader, is the remains of the chocolate that I ate so as to keep my concentration focused and my fingers energized. It took a lot of chocolate.
In the end (pun intended) a colorful scarf was born. This one is for casual wearing - perfect for jeans on a crisp morning.
It is a study in color. It is a study in reversible stitch work. It is functional - - and full of Little Ends.
