My First FO from HandSpun Yarn

I have finished my first thing made with my very own handspun yarn. The fiber was 50/50 silk/merino. It was wonderful to spin and knit. This is the Cross-Stitch scarf from 101 Designer One-Skein Wonders. I made a small change; I did the pattern on an even number of stitches instead of an odd number. This made ridges, which I acutally like. This stitch pattern helped hide the uneveness of the yarn.

I very happy with it.
