Pretty New Scarf at My Good Babushka

Here is a picture of the sunset from my upstairs landing window. Very pretty.

And here is a scarf I knitted. Very warm, knit in a tube so it will be two-ply for extra warmth and keep all the straggly ends of yarn on the inside. Part of the pattern is a traditional Scandinavian motif, and then I've added my own band of birds and hearts which seems a little Pennsylvania Dutch.
