Branching out...

It is probably foolhardy of me to tempt the gods of dropped stitches by attempting this pattern, but after seeing all the great scarves people made at the branching out knit-along page, I couldn't resist any longer. I now have a skein of Karabella lace mohair waiting to be cast on. I'm hoping I at least make it through one pattern repeat unscathed -- then there is hope for finishing the whole thing!
