Eggplant Ascot

Continuing with the gifts. I made this ascot for a friend's January birthday. It is being modeled by my mommy.

The Pattern: Huckleberry Ascot by Kat Coyle
The Yarn: Frog Tree Alpaca Sportweight in Eggplant 2 skeins (260yds/237.7m)
Needle size: US 6

Started: 12/25/10
Finished: 12/27/10

I really like the Frog Tree Alpaca, soft and light.

Short rows are used to get the ends to flair out.

Then you pick up stitches along the edges and line them with bobbles.
A very nice looking quick knit.
