Bind off loosely.
As with any lace knitting, it isn't finished until it has been blocked. On a padded but firm surface, pin the scarf out to a gently stretched size. Steam with a steamer or hold your steam iron just barely above the surface to cover the whole area. Allow to dry thoroughly, discouraging any resident pets from napping on your creation.
Optional but recommended: For fringe, cut 20 lengths of yarn 11" long. Fold each pc in half and using a crochet hook, pull the fold through the first st of the center portion of the hem. Pull both cut ends of the yarn through the loop and snug up to the hem (lark's head knot).
Tie an overhand knot using both cut ends, about 1-1/2" below the hem. Put a pony bead on one strand (I used a tiny crochet hook to pull the yarn through). Now tie another overhand knot using both ends about 1" below the first, trapping the bead. Repeat across the center portion of the hem, 10 ends evenly spaced on each end.
