I thought I'd post some photos of some of the other versions I've done with the Argosy scarf design. This (see photo above) is actually the first version ever, the prototype. It's done in Tahki Yarns Brilla Print which I believe is discontinued. I really like this one-- the color(s), the feel, the drape. It blocks wonderfully and really shows off the stitches. I didn't take photos of it until after it had been hanging for several months so the stats that follow are after gravity has done it's thing. The finished measurements are 4"x74" using 2 skeins. Keep in mind that this will not keep your neck warm unless its summer.

This one is done in KnitPicks Gloss in Woodland Sage using 2 strands held together. This photo shows it before blocking and the shade is really brighter in real life. I really like this yarn but couldn't imagine something this nice on my feet so I tried a scarf instead. It's yummy too. I used only 2 skeins again (it cost under $10-what a bargain!) and the finished measurements are 4 1/2"x61" (remember, that's before blocking). I really must get more of this but I'm hoping they bring out more colors.

And then there's this version which is still in progress. I'm using Rowan Tapestry in color Pot Pourri (col.172). Its 70% wool, 30% soybean. In the skein it has a sheen to it but when knitted, it gets a bit fuzzed up. Before blocking, the width is 4 1/4" but it should finish up around 5" wide-point to point. Can't even guess on the length right now.
