The Technicolor Dream Scarf

Once again, I cannot put down the variegated yarn!  I just can't step away from it.
Can you see why???!!  I used two different skeins of variegated yarn and this is the effect I got from it.   This is such an easy and fun stitch.  A k2, p2 changing yarn every two rows.  I used one skein each of Hobby Lobby's "I Love This Yarn" in Candy Corn Ombre, and Jazz Stripes. 
It makes a pretty striped scarf.  When Hubs saw it he said it was the Technicolor Dream Scarf.  I liked it!
I believe these will be Christmas presents for some of my favorite gals.
I have already begun another!  I also have another wrap to do and a little girl's scarf.  So things are quite busy.

Although I have been on vacation this week, it has been very busy!  My 30th class reunion was last night.  I had worked on it for the past nine months.  Stressed, planned, worried, anticipated...and it finally arrived.  Everyone had a great time.  I have mixed emotions...although I am glad it finally got here so I could quit stressing and worrying about it...I am also sad that it went by so quickly, there were so many people I wanted to catch up with and just didn't get the chance.
Here we are.  Class of 80.
I have to say a good looking group!!

Love these colours! I would wear that! I looked st the pattern you mentioned and she said to do a slip stitch start and finish to hide the yarn as you carry it up the side. I can't wait to try it)
