Warning Grandma - Don't look until after Christmas

I'm taking a risk here posting a picture of grandma's finished Christmas present but it's the only thing I've finished lately. It is the Branching Out scarf pattern from the fall issue of Knitty (I think). I used #8 needles and I can't really remember what brand of Kid Mohair. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out except I'm not really sure about the color....for me I would love it but I'm not sure about grandma. I guess we'll see. I'm leaving for Cleveland this Saturday and won't return until the following Saturday.
