Zanzibar

I have to apologize, because I can't remember where I saw the linky for this (although if I blame Lime 'n' Violet's Daily Chum it'll probably be a wash because they've gotten me in trouble before).

This little beauty is called Zanzibar and I got it from Split Rock Ranch.

It was lovely to knit with for certain, I've never knit with a yak blend (that I know of :). I was delighted when the pattern I chose decided to pool exactly perfectly. Every row came out this way, throughout the entire scarf...
And I'd also like to note that this is Christmas present number one ta-DONE!!!

Specs:

ZANZIBAR - Handspun Singles Yarn - Merino, Angora, Yak and Glitz; 164 yards.

US 8, cast on 16 stitches, she's about 6" wide and about 5' long.
Pattern: Morning Surf Scarf, by Jackie Erickson-Schweitzer. Spin-off Summer 2008
