What worked well:
This yarn is so soft and luscious and it has an almost glossy appearance. It really brings out the seeded rib stitch pattern. This scarf is for me (and I wear it a lot!), but I think the pattern/yarn combo would make a great gift. I would definitely knit this again.
Well, I had a hell of a time with the cast off. The first three attempts caused the edge to splay out - probably due to the tight nature of the ribbing (even with casting off in the stitch pattern.). I finally wound up casting off using Size 6 needles (two sizes smaller) - and quite tightly at that - to get the sort of edge I wanted.
