A little late for Christmas, but finished nonetheless:
The pattern is Veronik Avery's Lace Ribbon Scarf available, for free, on Knitty.com. I used Handmaiden fine yarn 'Silken' - 2 skeins - in this lovely bright berry red colour.
The pattern is a simple knit that is easy to memorize. Be warned though -- the recommended length for the scarf is a whopping 80 inches! Mine is just a touch shorter than this as I stopped when I was out of yarn from the 2 skeins.
I'm thrilled with the end result. As is my Mum who received the belated gift.
Hope you all had a Merry Christmas!

I love it Sam! Your mom is a lucky lady! Are you having tons of fun visiting your family?! Can't wait to hear all about it!
Oh, the scarf is just gorgeous. If I ever get around to making it, it definitely won't be that long though!
Very nice Sam!!

I wish to have more time in 2009 to look for new pattern on the web and try to do something new as you do!!
Have a great new year!

Very pretty! I love the photo with the berries.
What a beautiful pattern and shade of red. I do love your model. He would look really cute in my yard. See if he fits into your luggage.
Beautiful scarf, and I love the model :)
