The Secret Agent Scarf

yarn: Alchemy Bamboo

colorway: Secret Agent Blue

pattern: Scroll Stitch scarf pattern free with purchase from Hill Country Weavers in Austin

This has been finished and blocked for a while. It's really beautiful. The yarn bled and bled and bled in the rinse. I rinsed it over and over and over. And over. Tried adding vinegar. Tried adding salt and vinegar. Finally washed it in Kookaburra wash and got it to a very light blue tinged rinse and when I blocked it out on the white towels it didn't bleed. The color isn't as vibrant as it was int he skein, but it is still very, very pretty.
