Needles To Say

I made a scarf! I made this for my friend who was visiting. If you read the post, you will be all caught up. My friend visited and we made each other scarves. I knitted her one and she crocheted me one. Here's the one I made! I took these pictures with my phone and not with the usual laptop camera. I started with 30 stitches and just used the knit stitch. It was pretty easy. I think I would have liked it to be longer, but I didn't have enough time. I made this in about 3 days. Like a couple of hours in those days, though. Does that make sense? I tried to keep a consistent pattern of the overlapping part of the stripes, but at like 2 parts I wasn't able to. Each stripe is about 7 rows I think. I forget. I also did a kind of ombre with the blue because I ran out of yarn. You can tell in the last picture. Also I didn't have enough time to weave in all the ties where I changed colors because she had to leave. I weaved in some of them, and then cut the other ones. This made it look a little less professional, but what can you do? The last picture is the final product. The rest of them are when I hadn't weaved in or cut the strands on the sides. But needles to say, I got to work on my speed and I think it looks pretty nice.
Maybe I should have a sign off. Bye!
