So how long should a scarf be? Please tell me that size doesn’t matter. Is 45" acceptable, 48", 70"? I’ve found scarves an excellent way to indulge in expensive yarns that I might not otherwise buy. But sometimes two balls doesn’t seem quite enough for me. OK, get your minds out of the gutter. Any opinions on size? I once knit an 80" one and that seemed too much, but 45"? Really, I’m beginning to think size matters.
Here is my completed Fey Fantasia, measuring in at 54". I’d love to have it a bit longer but it is pricey yarn and there is no way I’m in for a fifth skein. It has a nice weight so it stays put when thrown over the shoulder. Some scarves don’t and need length to be wrapped around my neck. This was fun yarn to knit, even twice:
