in with the old // feather and fan scarf + rainy day socks

i'm soooo sticking to my goal of finishing up an old project before moving on to a new one. this is a scarf i started (and actually finished) so long ago...but never blocked it and never photographed it. with my new blocking wires, i was antsy to use them and brought them out to finally finish this one.

Beautiful! Oh, and I totally hear you on the finishing one project before tackling another - something I definitely need to work on!

It's beautiful, I love the little details you see when you look closer! Better than ones I see in shops I say!! xx

Oooo - I like. The pattern is really lovely in black.

And you deserve a pat on the back for finishing things! I usually finish right away, but then don't photograph/blog for ev errrr.

Gorgeous! Oh, I so need to stick to finishing something before moving on to the next project, she says, as 3 projects are currently on her needles! Oops!
Thanks for stopping by my blog!

I'm in the same boat as Beth- i have way too much unfinished business,haha. and what's worst, i just ordered yarn to start a new project...
cute scarf, and i love the lace socks! They would be perfect with those 'mens wear' type shoes J.Crew is always sporting :) next on the knit list...socks.
