I finished the Melon Stitch Scarf! 
I started on a new lace pattern too (a Christmas present and for Lacevember). I've been reading about lots of people knitting Branching Out, so I'm giving it a try. What fun! It knits up pretty quickly. I'm using my handspun alpaca/silk blend. 
We went to Stitches East on Friday and did some major damage. Yarn for years of enjoyment! I was very very bad. I purchased and had the author, Jane Sowerby, sign Victorian Lace Today. Ms. Sowerby is lovely, and the book is very inspirational.

I also received my order from Fearless Fibers: three skeins of cashmere for the Casino Shawl and one skein of Wisteria colorway that I don't know yet what I'll do with it, but I just loved the colors too much and there was only one skein left (so obviously I had to have it).
Also on the needles is the Pine Cone Scarf from Interweave Knits, Winter 2004. I'm knitting it with some handspun that I plied.

That pine cone scarf is very interesting. I love the way that your melon scarf turned out! Way to go. :) What yarn did you use?
