It's my Mums birthday this week and I'm giving her a scarf.
I haven't ever knitted her anything before... I am a bad daughter. So I'm hoping she likes it!

Unfortunately I forgot to add some ribbing at the sides to stop it curling but surely that just adds to the home-made charm of it! I used Pantons Valiani Yarn in Taupe and Dark Green about two balls of each continuing the pattern until the length I wanted.
