Montego Bay Scarf

The Kimono Sweater is done but I am still looking for suitable buttons. To get the right colour buttons to match with this sweater is really not easy!! While waiting for the buttons, I have just completed this scarf which I wanted to knit long ago... finally managed to get the right yarn for this project!
Pattern: Mentego Bay Scarf
Yarn: Handmaiden Fine Yarn Sea Silk
Needle used: 5.5mm
Lovely yarn!! soft and nice to knit with. Since it comes in 600m/150g/skein, I double the CO sts and make the size of a stole. The end product is just lovely and I can used it in many ways.
