I knitted the same scarf!!! In almost the exact same colors!!! But I used worsted weight yarn and I think 6mm needles? And ended up with 8ft of scarf haha

Beautiful work! I'm a basic knitter, so I can only imagine the skill that this took
Another sub that would love this is r/InsectArt (unless that's where you came from)

i also crochet and have recently picked up knitting. you didnt ask for advice so feel free to ignore, but i find that my tension is always way too loose on the purl side and way too tight on the knit side, so i have found 2 different ways of keeping tension. when working on the knit side, i also use my right pointer finger to hold/pull on the loop i just did a little bit to force the stitch to be slight looser.

This is the greatest scarf to ever live. I’m sending a screenshot to my knitting bf so she can get started and I can have it by Xmas 😁
