I'm beginning to feel like a broken record. Look, another FO! This seems to be my daily theme right now. But I can't possibly keep this up forever. As a matter of fact, it may be coming to an end with this one. I really think I need to rest my hands for a bit. It's just frustrating, though, because I still have 23 items on my list of UFOs and I just want to keep going. At a minimum, though, I need to mix in some knitting with all this crocheting, just to use some different muscles.
Anyway, on to today's FO. I started this scarf last July, so that I would have a travelling project when I went to the Knit and Crochet Show. I decided yesterday that I wanted to get it finished.
I used 2 skeins of Koigu, the Fan Lace stitch from Jan Eaton's book The Encyclopedia of Crochet Techniques and an E hook. The stitch pattern is really pretty, but it doesn't show up well in today's photo. Here is a photo that I took just after I started it that shows the stitch pattern much better.
I will probably send this one to the CT Sheep and Wool Festival along with yesterday's FO, since both are made with natural fibers.
Total yardage used since 1/5/08 - 2,070.5. This means that I have completed 2 of my goals for this month. I have used over 2,000 yards and I have now completed 3 items on my Ravelry project page. Not bad considering it's only the 23 of the month!

What a lovely scarf! I wish I could finish projects as fast as you. Right now I have a really bad case of Start-itis. I need to work on what I have on the needles instead of starting more :)
Both scarves are lovely. It's amazing how many of your UFOs have become FOs this month. It must give you a real sense of accomplishment.
