Bit by bit I'm adding the things I made over the holidays. This scarf was made for Laura. I saw a version of it in Purl in Soho. The pattern is a brioche stitich that you can find on purlbee.com. It took me forever to get the stitch right but I was determined. to figure it out.

Initially I was just making it with the multi color yarn but I got nervous that there wouldn't be enough so I added this glow in the dark yellow/green. It was a fortunate mistake b/c I like it much better with the solid thrown in. Laura loves it!
