This lovely woolly wonder is knit from Lamb's Pride worsted in a honeycomb pattern from one of my current favorite stitch dictionaries. (Oh, I know! You guys don't like these books due to lack of charts. I however, love them!)
The stitch pattern required every other stitch to go on a cable needle. At first this fact was a bit maddening, but soon I was motoring along as a rhythm began to develop. I think the entire scarf took me a few weeks to complete.
I finished the muffler off with a crocheted picot edge...
And six little needle felted bees...
The bees took me longer to make than the actual scarf! Although, I think they were definitely worth the effort!

The scarf is both huge and wonderful! The detail picture is lovely.
I love the scarf-the needle felting is terrific.
BTW, Lena is really becoming a gorgeous young woman-must be scaring you a little (would be scaring me):)
The picot edge is perfect! LOVE those beez.
This is the most beautiful of your creations, I think. Lovely!
If everyone blogs just a little bit more spring related items we might just convince the weather to warm up!
The bees are too sweet!

Very cute, indeed. I just wish there were a similar crochet pattern for those of us who aren't knitters. *sniff* ::puppy dog eyes::
