Knitting Update #2: Earth Toned Unknown

Alright, so on my next knitting project, I chose an earthy toned yarn and decided to make a scarf. Lo and behold, I've grown tiresome and annoyed of the unraveling and fraying pieces of yarn that I figured that this so-called scarf is going to turn out crappy if I continue. I had casted on about 42 stitches and I realized 42 is too wide, especially since knitted yarn tends to stretch out anyway. I should have done about 25-30 cast-ons.

So I'm not sure what it's going to be, but for now, I'm thinking to end it sooner and make it into a drawstring pouch? I don't know. On the other hand, I also want to end it sooner because I want to learn how to crochet as it, in my opinion, looks faster and neater.

We'll see.

Really? Thanks. I thought for a moment that the pattern looked like a bathroom rug or something. -_-'
