Yeah... it is done. My first Lace project is all finished and I am in love with my new beautiful scarf. I still need to block it (and figure out how to block a knitted piece first) but I could not be more satisfied with the result.

Admittedly, I don't know how many times I had to open up entire rows again because I forgot a Yarn Over in the pattern row before.. but it was all worth the trouble.
I will definitely post another picture once it is blocked and even more beautiful.
The pattern is available for free on knitpicks. It is called Winter Flame by juliet romeo juliet.

I also still had about 1.25 skeins left after I finished the scarf so I went and started a pair of fingerless gloves. They are done with central cable... Very pretty, if you ask me. I have by now finished the first one and I really like them. I can't belief how easy they were to make.... I guess I always think things are way more complicated than they actually are... go figure. This pattern is available as a free download on ravelry. It is called Humanity by dlotter.

I also started another Ninja... So many birthdays coming up soon that I have quite the list of stuffies to make.... The ninja was just the easiest choice for right now... I guess I will start on the more complicated stuffies this weekend... (Permitting lesson prep does not take up all weekend....)
