Gray Scarf

Last week my husband had a need for a new scarf, having misplaced the one I'd previously knit for him. We stopped at the yarn store on the way home from church on the 26th and picked up some nice Baby Alpaca Brush Yarn. I saw this pattern on Ravelry and figured it out the easy stitch pattern. It's ribbed, but not overly emphasized.
I cast on 20 stitches.

Pattern
Row 1: Knit all stitches
Row 2: * K2, P1* repeat until two stitches remain, K2.
I knit as much as I could each night and finally finished it up on Saturday the 1st of November. The scarf ended up being 76 inches long. Not bad for a week's worth of knitting. I like the yarn a lot and may be knitting myself a new hat and scarf with it after the holidays.

A very cool scarf. You must knit pretty quickly! I like to knit scarves too, but it takes me a while to knit that many inches

They were pretty large needles, size 10 I believe. It makes things go faster.
