There was no hesitation on my part when it came to knitting Susan's Infinity Scarf. She's a peep, it was a great pattern, the desire and need came together and the right yarn was there, so with all things in the groove, it had to be.
Admittedly, I had no clue as to why the scarf was called the "Two Ribs Infinity Scarf", other than the obvious two styles of rib. What wasn't apparent, at least to this old brain, was the infinity part! Well, the light bulb went on yesterday morning, which set me to wondering...why did it click at that moment and not when I worked the twisty, seemingly infinite cast on. Why didn't it click during the infinite hours of entertaining, yet meditative, knitting or, even, the FIRST time I twisted the loop and put it over my head?
That's it, THAT twist , or at least I think it's why. As it turns out, everyone is going to be infinitely envious of my beautiful, soft and cozy scarf because it's truly quite handsome, and totally wearable, warm and lovely.
Susan designed a winner, as I love the way the scarf wraps, its coziness around my neck and the very cool style of the ribs. The enjoyable hours of knitting were a great way to start 2012!
Beautiful Margene! Both you AND the wrap! I look longingly at these type of scarf/cowls and wonder if I could pull off the bulk. I need to try one and see what I think. The snuggle factor could outweight everything else!

Isn't it lovely?! I have been knitting complicated patterns long enough to realize that sometimes 'less is more'. This is a new classic and will be stylish forever! I have something similar in my que (I'm planning 'Dovetail' in Cascade Eco Cloud in colorway Dove Grey) to start soon and I'm looking forward to it. Yours is inspiration! I love it Margene!
