Scarves During Naptime

My boyfriend's parents are coming up Mid January to visit and to see the baby so I have a little bit of extra time to work on her Christmas present which happens to be an angel stitch scarf.

I'm using Lion Brand Amazing yarn in Glacier Bay. It's 53% wool and 47% acrylic so it's machine washable (but don't throw it in your dryer) I'm not sure if I like this yarn yet - if you make a mistake it's not very forgiving to go back and fix. That being said I do like the colors. I just wish there was more blue in it. However it's light weight and seems like it would be warm despite the lightness.

His mom likes more earthy tones (I learned this after I started the scarf) so I hope she likes it. I'm also working on a scarf for a friend's birthday at the end of January. It's the grapefruit scarf in the Twinkie Chan book - but since both colors she used for the scarf are discontinued I'm trying to make it work with worsted weight yarn. Not sure how it's going to work yet but I will get it to work!
