I just finished a scarf using Lion Brand Incredible. I used the pattern from the label in the Autumn Leaves color. Pooh graciously offered to model for me.

This picture shows the correct coloring of the ribbon (and Pooh) better. :))

Here's a closeup of the stitches -

Tiff!! It's soooooo pretty! :cheer2

How many spools of the Incredible did you need to finish this project? And what happens when you fringe it? Does it tend to unravel?

Questions, questions! [it's just that i have been wanting to do something with that stuff.. but was :chicken ] :lol

Thanks Deb and Chelle. :grouphug

I used 2 1/2 spools for the scarf and it called for 3, giving you the option of making it wider if you wanted. I'm going to save the leftover for a novelty yarn scrap pillow, I think. :thinking1

So far, it's staying together nicely when fringed, which was suprising but welcome news. :) I was afraid it would start unravelling.

That's gorgeous! I must be out of the yarn loop - because I haven't heard or seen this ribbon yarn before and i'm a Joann's regular. I need to get out of the wool ease section and venture out! I love the colors - is it difficult to work with that yarn? (sorry if you already answered that one)!

Thanks everyone. :)

I was suprised at how easy it was to work with. You use a "K" hook for this pattern and I think a larger hook may make a difference in how easy the stitches go together with the ribbon.

That's gorgeous!! I love the colors, especially since autumn is my favorite season.

Okay, stupid question, but is ribbon yarn actually ribbon? I've never seen it in person.

It's like ribbon, only a little thinner, I think. :thinking1 It's really thin and flexible so that it forms smoothly into the stitches. :cloud9

i've never used ribbon yarn but this looks so elegant, very "evening wear" like. Pooh is such a compliant model lol
