Progress on my First Scarf

Ok so I've been working a few days on this scarf. It's the first time I have knitted anything that wasnt a potholder (And that was when I was 8 or 9). I have a foot of it done and have 5 more to do, here is what it looks like so far.

I know it's dark but what do you expect when lighting sucks at 10:40 p.m? I have 4 more to make of the skull and crossbones and found an awesome alien head one I am going to do for myself.
