FO: DK Moon Phases Scarf (or "Around the World in 29-30 days")

FINALLY FRICKIN FINISHED! And just in time for the end of the first task. I would've finished it sooner but for a while I decided to only work on it at the shop, which turned out to not leave me quite enough time, so I had to work on it at home as well.

Pattern: my own--I plan on posting it here once I get it written up.
Yarn: Cascade 220, 2 skeins #8555 (black), 2 skeins #8011 (light grey heather)
Needles: US #7

Notes: I redid the moon charts so many times I can't even recall what the number is at this point. But I'm happy with how they finally came out. One of the hardest parts was figuring out how to do the bind off to match the cast on (I'll post pictures of it later) because the cast on is only one color, and everytime I tried to do the bind off i kept getting grey purl bumps in it, but I finally figured it out. Thank god, because I would've had to figure it out for the SnB scarves I'm doing soon, and that would've sent me into a panic.

I'll probably post more pictures to-morrow.

Oh my, that scarf is amazing. I love it, and will be eagerly awaiting a pattern! (hint, hint) I've never done double knitting but this would give me an excuse to try it.
