Swashbucklin' Swatchery

Does anyone get Knitting Daily in their mailboxes? Well, I do, for what it's worth, and there has been a lot of talk about swatching lately. I hate making swatches. My precious yarn goes into my finished item, thank you very much. I do say that tongue in cheek, however, because it has been the lack of swatching that's caused many a ripping of acres of stockinette that I will never get back. Never! This swatch was actually not created in the spirit of knowing how the hell my yarn would behave on those needles, but as a sample for one of my lovely customers. This is another variation on the corkscrew scarf I talked about in a previous post.

The pink and the green look really lovely together, and the green eyelash yarn really spices it up. I love it!
