I wish I wish I wish

I wish I could find my camera cable to upload pictures of my recent knitting.  Sadly, I can't find the elusive cable and my pictures are stuck in the dungeon of my camera until I can.  For a photographer, this is a special kind of torture, and for a knitting photographer who has just completed her first noro scarf after 2 months of knitting on it, I am beyond frustrated.

I wish I could post pictures of the ingenious blocking system I had going with the noro scarf - it included multiple bath towels, 5 hangers, a couple chip clips, and my shower curtain rod.  (Intrigued, now, aren't you?)

I wish I wasn't so @#$% fascinated by the 1x1 ribbing of this SECOND noro scarf I've begun, about half the width as the last on as to still get the amazing color effects but stretch (quite literally) 2 skeins of expensive (for me) silk garden.  

I wish I could put into words how much I love my scarf but am a bit let down by the itchiness factor.  I was wooed into the project with promises that it would soften up after blocking, and while it did, to a point, it still itches.  I'm sure after more research, I'll end up re-blocking using SOAK (which is what I should have used in the first place) and I hope, I wish, and I pray that it gets softer.  It's so gorgeous and I love how long it is - over 98 inches! - so this will make it all types of perfect.
