When I decided to knit this scarf, we were in the midst of a cold snap at the end of December. I “knew” that we could generally count on similar weather at some point in February, so the scarf would have a good variety of colour.
Oops
With the exception of a few days, February was unusually mild, with the temperature generally above -5 Celsius (light blue) and above freezing (white and green).
On a knitting note, I’m glad I decided to alternate between seed stitch and garter stitch each month. It makes each month stand out and I think will be a better gauge as the year winds on.

Yes Bonnie … who’d a thunk it? February has surprised us but there still were days when the scarf would have been welcomed. Hope your time away is going well.

LOL – it’s been a bit of an adventure, but I’m hoping we’ve all finally settled in.

Interesting – for us, here in France, it was the opposite. We had temperatures reaching -12 Celsius with the wind factor, totally unusual in this country – plus plenty of snow in areas not used to it, like the South of the country. Unexpected changes will make your scarf even more interesting to knit.
