The Scarf that won't quit

The Ravenclaw Scarf doesn't want to end. I started the 6th and what should been the final repeat last night, actually while I was on the bus (Yes, I am a public knitter), and it has become clear that this scarf doesn't want to be 6 feet. It wants to be 8 feet. 2 extra feet of knitting. Each foot takes nearly 3 hours. Thats 6 hours longer until I get to wear my scarf.

My sister asked when I was whining about the scarfs strength of will, why I just didn't finish it at 6 feet like I planned. She's a non-knitter. She just didn't understand that yarn can communicate with it's knitter. I may have scared her away from ever wanting to pick up a set of needles.

Oh well, I'll get her eventually.
