I knit this scarf using 100% bamboo yarn on a US #6 needle. It is a broken rib stitch pattern - then hearts knitted onto one end.

Was it fun to knit with

Was it fun to knit with bamboo? I've held the yarn and it feels nice.

Yeah - the bamboo is nice.

Yeah - the bamboo is nice. Slick...this particular one is a heavier weight than what I usually knit things with so it went quickly. I have knit with it before and it tends to drape really nicely...BUT...it also tends to sag under its own weight. (Kinda' like I'm doing at this age too *S*)
