This scarf was started on June 8th, with my very first skein from Somemore's 4.4 lb 1/2 fleece. This skein had 372. 5 yards in it and weight 2 3/4 oz or 78 grams. I had a very small amount left over from this skein. 
This picture was taken on June 14th, when I have roughly 15 inches knitted on it. I knitted on this scarf not only at home but in Dr's offices when waiting on my husband and while he was in surgery to remove skin cancer. It helped me to have something to do. 
Yesterday I finished knitting the last 6 rows of seed stitch and then wove in the ends, washed and blocked it. I knitted a total of 11 repeats of the Ostrich Plumes pattern. This scarf is 52 3/4 inches long and 8 inches wide. The natural color of the yarn really give the Ostrich Plumes pattern a nice look. This scarf drapes really well and the softness of the Australian Bond wool feels nice around the neck.
