Head Scarf

I am so excited! I finally finished my head scarf! This head scarf has a story. I bought this beautiful cotton yarn for 40% off from a local yarn store that was closing and it was still $8.00 for a hank. Very beautiful, very good quality, very expensive and I was so anxious to get started. BUT... I had not paid attention to my knitting book and I proceeded to just start yanking yarn straight off of the Hank. Lesson: Do not pull yarn or start knitting straight from a hank (A hank is the weird figure 8 yarn). I did knit for a little while, but just as you guessed it, I eventually had the biggest mess in the world. The more I tried to unravel and pull, the worse it got. It was hopeless. So, like any normal person would do...I called my mom:) At first she told me to throw it away, than she told me to give it to her and she would fix it. I'm embarrassed to say, my mother unraveled all of my yarn and fixed everything. Thanks mom! Here is the finished product.
