Finished scarf!

As this was truly my first project (the dishcloth was started a week later and finished a bit earlier, as expected), I am very excited that it looks so good! This is made with an alpaca/merino blend wool, a Christmas present (along with my first pair of needles--6.0mm) from Katrina. I'm not very good at binding off yet. I'll have to have someone watch over me for my next project. I ended up with a large loop at the end, which would probably be very appropriate for a pot holder, but not for a scarf.

All in all, I'm very happy!
