Finished Object: Slanted Eyelet Scarf

I don't get to say this very often, but I finished something!! I knit this scarf almost entirely on the way to and from New York. Just picture me knitting fast and furiously with my noise-cancelling headphones on trying to forget that I'm 36,000 feet in the air.
I really like how it turned out, but I think it might have been more interesting with a different yarn - something a little more exotic. You can't see the pattern very well in these pictures, but it has an eyelet pattern and is slanted. The pattern is from my 2006 Knitting Calendar, which had a different pattern for every day. I started this scarf with some yarn from the stash that I originally intended to be a felted purse (Lamb's Pride Worsted) at one of those moments when I just had to start something new. I wish it was a bit longer, but I didn't want to break into another skein of yarn just to get an extra couple inches on this scarf. Sometimes a nice, simple, scarf project is just what you need, huh?
