When the scarf got to this point I realized that some of the thin areas might be vulnerable to pulling when worn. All this work ending up stretched out did not seem like a good thing.
Someone on the WetCanvas Fiber Arts thread suggested double wrapping the thin parts to bulk it up some. Soooooo, I pulled it out just about to the point of the last picture shown and started up again. As maddening as ripping out work can sometimes be, knitting is much more forgiving than glass. You get do overs. That's a good thing.
Here is the scarf a little over half way finished. The double wrapping the thin areas seemed to help bulk it up a bit where needed, leaving the interest of thick and thin in place. Ran out of the right thickness of yarn so I spun some more and will try it out soon.

Here's where it gets interesting. The first bit of yarn was thicker than the rest. I intentionally tried to make it thicker and thinner in some parts because I like the look. This was not what I was going for.
Yes Elaine, I really did spin this yarn!
Here is Jenny Pink all washed up, rolled into a skein, and ready for knitting. Wish you could feel how soft it is.
Almost got too busy to blog today.
Before the trip to Solvang, I asked niece Jenny if she wanted anything. Her answer was, "Something pink." Smart girl!
