Aspen ribbed scarf

Spunky Club September. Sumptuous Superwash Merino and Tencel. Predrafted with gold clogs to provide scale (plus a stellar fashion sense :-) and to complement the luminosity of this fiber.


Spun into singles. Photo doesn't do it justice. It shines as if illuminated from within. The slubby knitting as testament to my learning on this yarn. This stuff was sticky and slippery at the same time. And I love it.

And knit into a ribbed scarf. When held it drapes like wool-water.


A detail. You can clearly see the slubs here.


And here to ask for you help. Leave as is or block expanded to show those ribs and almost lacy quality. I'm tempted to block. In fact would have already if we weren't having a houseguest tonight who needs to sleep on the bed I use for blocking. :-)

You thoughts please: Block or leave as is
.

A modeled shot of "as is." Still super warm here. Thus the tank top.



But Autumn has definitely arrived. To be honest - this pic is weeks old and these sugar maples are totally naked. (Capello - what kind of hits do you think that will bring?!?)
