Angora Froth

Here's a close up of the Louisa Harding Kimono Angora scarf I knitted to the Rowan "Froth" pattern.
I posted a pic of this a few days ago but it was a very bland picture of it blocking and it kind of got buried in the excitement of my birthday and the debacle of the knitting group hiccup.
This is a much more true reflection of the colours.
It's dead yummy and fuzzy and certainly proved a hit at last Sunday's knitting get together.
Yes, people, this is my one and only finished object of 2007 so far!

Kathleen that is one gorgeous scarf, the addition of the kimono angora really makes it. I have 2 of these in my stash - is that enough or do I need more?

Hi Carol, I used nearly two balls of the main shade for the scarf body, and nearly one ball for the edging. If I was ever doing it again I would make the scarf broader and shorter. x K
