S'no Haven Scarf

This alpaca has waited a very long time to appear as a useful item. It was purchased over twenty years ago. On New Year's Eve, I was was standing in a wool shop, trying to decide between three colours. The shop owner made an announcement that she would be closing in ten minutes! A woman cannot make a decision in such a short time...at least not this one. Later that evening, putting away some Christmas decorations, I found a bag with six balls of lovely soft alpaca. Too little for a sweater but perfect for a generous scarf. I call this one S'no Haven as I adapted a pattern called Haven but it's not quite exact. Serendipity is a lovely thing.
