It is the 'Little Leaf Lace Scarf' by Sivia Harding. I am using Opal sock wool in the Neon colourway so that it will be nice and vibrant against my black Winter coat. The needles are Addi Lace circulars and I love the slight 'nobble' at the end which helps with doing the psso bits.On the sock knitting front I have finished the 1st sock in Regia Mirage Earth. I decided to do 30 rows of rib and 40 rows of st.st down to the ankle for extra grip and cosiness.
I spent 3 days in the wilderness known as second sock syndrome, but pulled myself together today and have made a start on the next one : )
Edited to add: My lovely ducky stitchmarker is from Yarnimals
The lovely Sprite has made me loads of stitchmarkers including sheep, pigs, and 4 custom-made cats. I also have horses and elephant markers from her : )

I've edited to my post to add a link to Yarnimals who made the stitchmarker. She is Sprite64 on Ravellry : )
Beautiful lace scarf and gorgeous yarn.
I've got a little duckie too... and a sheep, pig, pony, ladybird, penguin ... Can you tell I'm a big Yarnimal fan?!
I love that sock! :)
I get around second-sock syndrome by having both on the go at the same time - I do the rib on the one & then on the other & so on. The main reason for doing this was that originally my tension was varying too much between socks, but now I do it because when I've finished one sock I've only got the toe to do on the other.
