Pattern: Ostrich Plumes Scarf by Anne Hanson

Yarn: Sundara Yarn Fingering Silky Merino in "Caramel Apple"

Needles: US 6/4mm

Finished Size: in between scarf and stole

Pattern Modifications: Knit 4 repeats of the lace pattern instead of 3 or 5.

Notes: This pattern was my first real lace project.  I made it for my mother, since this sort of dusty rose color is her favorite.  I modified the pattern because I wasn't sure I'd have enough yarn for the five repeats.  Having finished the project, I think there would have been plenty, as there were 45 grams left when I made it as long as I wanted.
