These 6 scarfs have left the house. In late October they will be delivered. These are the final pictures of them. In the top photo all 6 are laid out side by side on a California King Bed. In the bottom photo they are rolled up, which is how I store them. Each scarf is knit in the round with multiple strands of yarn. All are 6 feet 2 inches long plus or minus a few inches. No two are ever alike. They are fun to knit. They use up a lot of odd skeins of yarn. As a bonus for me, I know that they will keep kids warm.

A Cacophony of Scarfs
A decision has been made to use all the yarn in the Bye-Bye project bag for one of a kind scarfs for a local children’s clothing bank. Each one will be different. I have 2 completed. I have one that I am doing the finishing work on. I have also picked out the next warp color for scarf number 4.
Below is a look at the yarn I will be using. You might see a pile of odds and ends, but I see an endless cacophony of scarves. As it is still easier to weave and spin rather than knit, I suspect that I will have a whole bunch of scarfs done by the holidays. I wonder if I will be able to fill the Bye-Bye project bag with hand woven scarfs. It is a very good goal in my humble opinion.
