Knitted collar scarf

Turns out knitting is a lot like riding a bicycle: once you know how, you never unlearn ;-)
It's been a good 10 years since I last knitted something, but I had no problem picking it up again!

I was inspired by fellow China traveller N. to knit a collar scarf in the same wool I used for my bedroom slippers. She said hers took only 50 mins to complete (crocheting), but all in all I spent 3 nights on it.  (note to self: crafting is NOT a race!)

I didn't have a pattern, I just eyeballed it. I set up 60 stitches on no. 8 needles and knitted approx. 25cm K2P2 ribbing. I crocheted the seam closed and tadaah, another scarf done!
