It's about 6 feet long and very soft. Very hard to let it go because it's actually pretty gorgeous. The pictures do not do it justice.

And for the two projects in the works. Another scarf.

This one, a paid commission for my friend going back to college in the fall. I'm actually going to make two of these. (Another for a buddy in California.) The colors the closest I could find here in Wichita to match Gryfindor colors from Harry Potter.

The yarn being used is from Lion Brand, from the new Vanna's Choice. Mustard and Brick. It's not as soft as the Caron's Simply Soft, but the two color choices really seem to match well and the feel is starting to grow on me.

I'm still 4 stripes from the end and then time for fringe.

And lastly, my first attempt at a blanket.

A pattern from Lion Brand that you can find here. It's also my first attempt at Cable. However, I'm really enjoying it. The Wool-Ease thick and quick knits up really quickly. And the color is coming out better than I expected. On the skien, it looks like a deep wine or purple, but it takes on different hues in different lights. Sometimes more red, sometimes it even has a copper sheen to it.

I'm currently on panel 2 out of five and trying to decide if I am going to keep this for myself or let my new roommate take it. I do think that I'll be making another one in the charcoal color for my sister for x-mas.
