A Gift for Mom

The Wavy Ribbon Scarf, knitted from Tess' Designer Yarns Microfiber Ribbon in Enchanted Forest colorway. 

 The photos don't do the yarn justice.   The microfiber ribbon has a slight shine (think shimmer, and not horrible 80's spandex kind of shine) and the colors are really vibrant.   The look and feel of the scarf don't translate well into photos (well, at least the kind of photos my husband and I take anyway).

 It's a gift for my mother.   It's not a surprise because she and I went to Stitches West and she saw the scarf displayed there.  She actually asked me to make her one!   We couldn't purchase the yarn at Stitches because the vendor had sold out of the colorway, so I went home and ordered it online through the website.
