For my second attempt at knitting I decided to be a bit more adventurous
and knit my friend's boy a scarf.
I decided on Rico Essential Merino Aran for the wool in navy, 
tangerine and burgundy, and I knitted the scarf using my favourite 
Addi aluminium 5mm needles.

Completely unintentionally the scarf ended up being slightly 
Hogwarts-eque, which is no surprise seeing as I am a HUGE fan!
I was really pleased with the end results, and more importantly my 
friend and her boy love it! My favourite moment was when I saw them 
last. When his mum asked him who knitted him the scarf, two year old M 
smiled shyly and said Ju Ju, AAAHHHHH!!! It made all the tense moments 
trying to recover dropped stitches completely worth it!
