Last week, I saw Drew's(Knit-O-Rama) pic of knitted "The 5x5 Orange scarf." Look at his basketweave pattern orange scarf!!!! It Sooooo Great!!!

Inspired by Drew, I start knitting basketweave scarf too!!!

It's getting hot here in CA vally area..Yasterday was over 82degree...TOO HOT!!!! I was thinking why iam knitting scarf for this hot wether..almost summer!!! Drew say too!! I think this scarf will be save for coming up winter.

This scarf iam using "Peruvian Collection Highland Wool"(7359 Tuscany Green) from Elann. This yarn is really cheap and Really good quality!!!! WOW!!! $2.25 for 109 per skin What a big deal!!!! So i get a 15 skin of different color. The Elann is great online yarn store it has lots of low price yarns but it's really good qualit yarns. Recomment to all the knitter!!!!
