Arrow Lace Mobius


It is finished and 'blocked'. I am not sure how to block a mobius other than to lay it out and cross my fingers. That twist doesn't lay flat. So far that has worked for me.

I followed Cat Bordhi's Arrow Lace Pathways Scarf pattern with one exception. The edging is just a couple of rows of garter with a really loose bind off. I was thinking about a pciot bind off but didn't have enough yarn. I did the picot bind-off for about 28 stitches, Looked at the number of color changes and count the remaining changes. Not enough yarn by about 30%.

The yarn is Raven Frog Fibers Marvelous Merino in the Princess Maksoutoff's Crown color. The yarn is nice but the colors bled into the water like crazy. I got dark blue water. Hopefully, they don't bleed much more. I really like the color combination.
