Dusty rose scarf

  My DH's aunt gave me some very nice old yarn when we visited last fall. I think yarn is about 20 years old (at least), and it doesn't even has yardage on the label - meters really, it's old yarn from Macedonia, when Macedonia was part of the Yugoslavia long time ago, in another galaxy far far away ...

  Color is very nice, kind of dusty rose, and I had 4 skeins, so I figured it out that I can for sure make a scarf, even if I don't know how much yarn I have. Pink is not my color, so I decided to make a present for the wife of my FIL.

  Turned out really nice, I wish I had made it wider, but I didn't have bigger needles, and she is small, like me, so I think it will be good. Pattern is really nice, Sequoia cable scarf, with 2 wide cables going accross each other, and one that intersect before next two start. Easy and very nice looking. Cables pop out and rose has nice sheen:

I just don't like mohair very much, I'm spoiled by all those nice Purewool I have, soft and buttery...

Finished scarf looks very nice, I am eagerly waiting for the package to arrive :)
