Thus:
It took me three tries, embarrassingly. The first one, knit lengthwise, I had to rip up because it was too short. The second one, also knit lengthwise, I had to rip up because in the middle of casting off I dorkily got distracted and began straight knitting again, and I couldn't figure out how to save it because I can't see the stitches in eyelash yarn. The third one worked, because it would take some stupid that even I haven't seen in years to screw up the "cast on 4 and knit till the yarn's gone" technique.
Here it is on a model, before the model stopped cooperating:
You can tell from the ears that he's not quite diggin' it.

Hi!
Great accent scarf! I like the model, too.

Aw, very attractive on the kitty!
Eyelash yarn is one of those things that you *think* you should start with, because it hides all your mistakes, and then you realize you shouldn't have started with, because it hides everything. I did my first scarf in a fluffy angora that made me sneeze, got all over everything, and completely obscured the fancy lace pattern I was trying to make.
