OK, those were yesterday's pictures, and ...yikes...my digi cam sucks!

So, I took some updated pics of the One Row Scarf.

Hopefully, some of them are actually in focus.

Can any of you identify my current problem?

Well, besides the part where I turn to my husband (for whom the scarf was started) and said, "Honey, do you think this looks "guy scarfish" enough?" To which he replied, "Uh, I wouldn't wear it."

To keep him from receiving an 'Ocular Injury Sustained From a Projectile Knitting Device', I kept on knitting, and knitting, and knitting.
No, the current problem is this:

I'm running out of yarn! It takes 21" of yarn per row.
Does that <-- look like it will handle 60 more rows?
1,260 inches of yarn?
105 feet?
35 yards?!?!
I don't think so.
I hope whoever gets this thing enjoys short scarves.
I'm so bummed.

Yeah. Can you find a short person for the scarf? The "running out of yarn thing" really sucks, huh?

Yarn crawl: There are plenty of places to hit in the Cinci area...FYI. There's lambikins, fiberge, knit on, and at least 2 others...And I know where the three that I named are located. ;)

You could always add wide bands of a contrasting color at the ends to boost the length. I've had to do that before when I've come up short on scarves, granted I crochet rather than knit.
