Start of a scarf

(the yarn used is CPY Kid Merino)

The start of a scarf is visible on the image. I had this yarn at home for quite a while now - and no matter what I tried - it did not want to be knit into something difficult. So for a change, I tried a simple pattern on this, with a nice effect. The needles are quite heavy though - Alexa purchased me a pair with built-in lights a while back. The batteries in the end of the needle are making the needles heavy. But I like the progress thus far.
