Natsu Scarf: Progress update

I really need to make a couple knitting icons.

Anywho, been working on that Natsu scarf for [livejournal.com profile] lycorne, and we decided to go with a very basic pattern that's called a basket weave. It makes the squares very easy to see whereas the pieced together pieces weren't going to be so clear. Below is the progress I have so far, which is currently about 42in and just wraps around. I think 60in. will be enough to get the right length, but may go as far as 70. We'll see.

Thanks.

It is kinda warm. That might be a bit of a downside because it's meant for cosplay for Becky and it's usually warm when she cosplays. Oops. XD

No worries. I love scarves, despite having little practical use for them. Also, nothing can beat the knight!Fakir cosplay for overheating. (The only part of my body not covered in layers of black was my face, and the con was mostly outdoors in the middle of summer.)

At least you can take a scarf off more easily than an entire shirt.

Awww. Looking awesome! The basket weave looks so much better than the other options. XD

Thanks. Simple pattern, but very effective.
