Finally, two months later I would like to present the finished Phiaro!
Pattern: Phiaro Scarf by Katie Himmelberg from Knitscene Winter 2007/Spring 2008
Yarn: Oasis by Southwast Trading Company in Chocolate #53 100% Soysilk
Modifications: None
I'm quite happy with it but it has turned out to be very long, perhaps too long. I contemplated cutting off some of the length, but that would mean doing all those plaits again. Noooooo!
Now while this is a scarf, I think that this is a garment that I will actually get to use a lot here. The soysilk is cool on your skin while providing a small amount of additional warmth that is often required in an arctic air conditioning! Yay!

Ooh Pretty!

Just beautiful! Wow!
It looks amazing, I love it as a scarf too.
Oh my god Charmaine that is absolutely gorgeous.
I am completely jealous of this - have never seen the pattern nor the yarn but I LOVE IT.
I am going to order the yarn right now.
I might also add that it's a CRIME that you can't put this on ravelry - your pictures are the best of all of them!
This looks so floaty and lovely, great job!!
"hala est en train de faire le meme modele d'echarpe que toi.la tienne est magnifique,ca donne envie d'essayer si les explications sont en francais!!!"
je n'arrive pas a trouver les explications en francais dommage car elle est il est tres beau ce foulard.mais je vais m'arranger avec hala
I fell in love with the pattern when I first saw it. Bought the book first, found the yarn about a year later at a local knit store at 50% off.
I kept the project in the car and kept working on it whenever I was at a doctor's office, bank drive through, and vet's office. It is surely a long, long project and you get to be bored with it but outcome is just priceless. Yours look very beautiful. I wish mine comes out pretty as yours.
Any tips on how to finish the project? I just finished knitting but I heard it takes forever to braid the ends.
Any tips you can give me will be greatly appreciated.
