One Declared Done and Two Finishes!
In 2010 I started an Advent Scarf as part of a KAL and got through Day 16 before the December crazies arrived in full force, so I put it away, vowing to finish it sometime. In the ensuing years, I've gotten it out and finished Day 17 and part of 18. Finally this year, I decided it was time to declare it finished because it's now 84" long with 6 1/2 more days to go. Enough already! It. Is. Done! (And I am keeping it!)
I also finished another one of these (Thanks, Mere!)
and another one of these:
That's 3 headbands from 200 yds. of worsted wt. yarn with a small ball left over. On my needles are a couple more projects, a pair of mitts, a different head band, and a sock as part of Kirsten Kapur's KAL. Fun! See what others are knitting at Patchwork TImes.

Bravo on the Advent Scarf finish. It's gorgeous! I was just thinking how nice it would be to have a red one. One day......
That is an AWESOME scarf. I love the mix of patterns.
That scarf is absolutely gorgeous. I love all the different patterns that show up so nicely with the solid yarn. Good for you on finishing up a few things. I am in the middle of the blanket and sweater so I am in no mans land.
Hugs,

Your scarf is gorgeous! I would keep it, too! And your little dishcloth and headband are adorable.
Kudos for finishing your Advent Scarf. i still want to knit one, but NOT with lace weight: I learned that lesson the hard way.
Your Advent scarf is yummy, and very inspiring...maybe next year I'll take it on.
The textures on your Advent scarf are stunning. Good for you for sticking with it!
Aren't those washcloths fun? I'm enjoying knitting them, too.
Busy, Busy, Busy!!! Your Advent Scarf has such fun textures and stitches - wow!!! I don't blame you for stopping. I have to keep my scarves to a certain length or they overwhelm me. I'm only 5 feet tall, so clothes overwhelm me easily :)
Good for you keeping that scarf and declaring it done. The colour is just beautiful and I love all the different stitches. You have been busy finishing projects. I bet you feel great.
Judy that is an amazing scarf. Reminds me of a gansey sweater. Lovely lovely work.
Im so glad yOU are keeping it.
Love the dishcloth and the cute head band. Everyone loves a headband .
enjoy your weekend
Very pretty scarf! Your needles were busy!
gorgeous! I've knit two or three calendar scarves and loved doing them :) Have fun with yours!!
Your Advent Scarf is beautiful, Judy. Enjoy wearing it.
Those are some nice finishes! Good for you :)
The patterning on the scarf is absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous finish. What great yarn for your other two finishes, too. Lovely projects!!
I didn't get a football message off to you in a timely manner...but what about last weekend's game??? That was an incredible comeback for the Seahawks. I'll be rooting for them next weekend.
super scarf - love the colour.
