Hello beautiful cashmere scarf in the making! You have got to love "trade". I taught a knitting class, made about $140 and turned around and spent $180 on Jade Sapphire Mongolian Cashmere yarn. I picked up four skeins @150 yards each. I think that I will only use three of the four, so I may have some left over to make some fingerless gloves for me. The recipient of this scarf will be my wonderful, adorable, generous friend. It will look great against his gray hair. My goal is to have it finished by June 15th, which is the next SF Opera date to see Puccini's The Girl of the Golden West.
