Future Chevron Scarf

I love what people have been doing with the Last Minute Knitted Gifts Scarves. I have seen them everywher and in every colorway. I have been foraging through the ol' stash for a while - in fact almost as long as I've had this book. I've always sort of felt weird about sacrificing unborn pairs of socks. But, I think that I've come up with a color combo that will make the transition an easy one. Be warned, however, for this color combination is most unusual and may blow your screen away (hopefully my colors are true enough in the photo - if not, your monitor will be just fine). These are Claudia's Handpaints fingering weight in Passion Fruit and Purple Midnight. In real life, the two have some of the same tones of color. However, they also both have other different colors, enough to create quite a contrast. I think that this will be a beautiful scarf. Oh, and I'm planning on trying out Domesticat's Chevron Scarf Pattern, first. It seems to be more defined and that just works for these colors. Updates to follow...
