Shetland Scarf Beginnings

Though I told myself I'd finish spinning all of the denim colored wool I have before I began knitting, I didn't. I'm still spinning, but I'm well into the scarf. I decided to go with the pattern I swatched with the fingering-weight I spun months ago. This will be the third scarf I knit out of this pattern, but I just love it. I can't resist a pattern that calls for 15 yarn overs to be purled together.

Tomorrow I'm going to Iran for two weeks. Perhaps I'll finish this scarf in that time.
