I have to admit that blocking wires make all the difference in the world

Earlier this week I think I posted about a scarf variation of Lotus Blossom out of two balls of Regia Cotton Sock yarn on 4.00 needles with 48 stitches of pattern plus two stitches in garter at each edge.

It was completey dry by late afternoon. I am not pushing my luck and will leave it pinned for a couole of days, just in case.  I am going to do this one again, but with the blossoms on both ends next time…..
