FO Friday 29

Happy Friday! I'm heading to LA this weekend to visit my parents and for a little fun, so I'm going to make this short because I still some house cleaning/laundry/packing/dinner to make (remember I write this post on Thursday) to do.

That said, I CANNOT WAIT TO SHARE MY FO!!!!!!!!!!! You guessed it....

THE NEVER ENDING SCARF IS FINISHED!!!

Or better known as the Noro Striped scarf that I made with Knit Picks' Chroma. So I'm a nerd and wanted to know how many rows and stitches this scarf had, because honestly it took me awhile. I started it March 3rd and finished yesterday, April 7th.

Here are the numbers:

534 rows
267 rows of each color
20, 826 stitches total

Now, I know that isn't a huge deal to those of you who knit sweaters, but that's a lot of stitches for me!

Materials Used:

Knit Picks size US 7 Harmony needles
Knit Picks Chroma Worsted (Galapagos)
Knit Picks Chroma Worsted (Regency)
Tapestry needle









EDIT: OMG, I was so excited I forgot the Mr Linky! Here it is!
