When I discovered this yarn at Suzoo's I just had to find the right pattern to show off this gorgeous yarn, the yarn is from "Adagio and is 70% Baby Llama and 30% silk, it has a wonderful slight sheen and reflects light when it moves. I explored various blogs and found the Bernadette scarf seemed to fit the bill. The pattern was so generously provided on Smariek Knits blog. I did make the scarf a little narrower than the pattern called for, just had to make it my own.
