It’s been a while since this was finished and mailed off, and I feel as though I’m finally over the trauma so it’s safe to post now.

Thanks for showing us all this. Saw how much effort you put in to this one and I reckon everyone will enjoy sharing that sense of closure with ya.
Tis an awesome scarf, despite the brain drain it inflicted. I hope it’s gone to a good home and someone out there spends a lot of their time telling people ‘check out my scarf! I got it hand knitted, it’s my favourite thing in the world!’
A paraphrased quote from the girl (in Scotland) it went to …
“i want more scarfs (yours is the first scarf i’ve had in ages and now i want MORE!!!) but i feel all proud when i wear it!! so hence i want another one! do you know how many people have been told that my scarf is from Oz. LOTS!!!”
Oh dear! You are gonna have a ton of orders soon, by the sounds of that. Well, actually that is pretty darned cool and it is a great scarf after all.
Thank you for the compliments ladies
