It's blocked :), I will be giving it to my friend tomorrow. I spun it in a worsted weight after plying so the lace design is not as clear as it would have been had I used a larger needle or thinner yarn (but I wanted it to be warm :P.) I put a piece of the roving next to it so you could see how light it looked before it was spun, but you can see how dark the scarf looks, in one of the previous entries you can see that the spun yarn also looks darker than the roving. Also visable in the wool roving are the bits of colored silk that runs through it. Really very pretty, notice all the color it puts in the scarf :), but I was surprised at how dark the spun yarn turned out. Anyone have any clue? Anyway, I like it and I'm sure she will too.
