The last time we saw my scarf, it had been frogged a couple of times.
Well, I can happily say there have been several more froggings since then, some of them starting from the beginning. No, I have no regrets.
And at last, my super bulky crocheted scarf is now completed! Yay!

| It's folded a couple of times here to show one of the twisty ends. |
It's now just wide enough to wrap comfortably around my neck, but it's pretty long, to make it drape a bit due to its weight.
The twisted motif is only at the two edges. Due to the way this is worked, the scarf is not reversible. Well, it is, if I just want a plain scarf.
I'm going to give you the pattern, if you're inclined to give it a go.
Like I said, I made this to work with my bulky yarn, so please consider it a fair warning. The length is whatever you want it to be, so I didn't give instructions for how many rows of hdc should be made.
Of course, feel free to let me know any opinion you might have on this, good or bad.
