Bubble Lace Scarf inspired by this book.
It's actually a pattern for a curtain, but I thought it would look great in some lightweight alpaca I had laying around. It's perfect for this time of year when it's still so cool in the mornings (I commute on public transportation so I do a lot of standing around outside before and after work.)

The yarn I bought at Alpacapalooza last year. The post can be found here. If I remember correctly, it was in a bundle of 3 smaller hanks from Sunbreak Alpacas in Auburn. I think it was knitted on US 5's or 6's. I can't remember.

The scarf itself is beautifully colored; hand-dyed purple with a little hint of coral pink here and there, and the variegation is incredible. The bubbles thin out toward the middle where the scarf lays around my neck so that the knit is more consistent for warmth, but then they pick up again at the other end. I love it.
