The last two stitches of Branching Out, finished at long last. I used two balls exactly of the Madil All Season Cotton, and was even able to end on the row of the pattern I wanted to with a six inch tail. Here's the scarf looking rumpled and unblocked:



I'll post a full post-mortem, including the pattern modification that I used to make it wider, once I get this blocked, since then I'll have better pictures to accompany it. Besides, the jury's still out on whether the modal in the cotton will make it too drapey when combined with the lace -- only blocking will tell.
