Beauty and the Beast

I am still experimenting with my icorded yarn to see what I want this scarf to look like.

The drawer is ready to be lightly sanded and have finish put on. Now I just need a nice day out so I can keep the windows open for 2 hours while it's drying. I think after working an hour and a half on it today I will try to finish it tomorrow. 

I went to my LYS and went a little bit yarn crazy. I have a crush on my two kinds of yarn I bought and I totally went outside of my comfort zone for colors. I am really proud of myself. 

I like Elizabeth Zimmerman's approach. Let the yarn dictate the pattern not the other way around. So I am armed with books, supplies and a rough sketch. Nothing left but to take a big deep breath and dive in.
