Notes

3instant gratification for travel and conference
cast on with 3,5 circs
pink for MC
brown for CC (slightly thicker yarn)

don’t want a triangular scarf. For a trapezoid form, I followed instructions until 48 mc stripe was completed (50 st), then went straight on. To retain the edge, “straight on” means: m1, k2tog in cc rows, where increases used to happen. 56 rows equal same length as in pattern.

Because my CC is thicker than my MC (and because very little of CC is left…) I did the picot cast off on the lace side in MC, and only on the striped side in CC - I like it!

final measurment after blocking:
34 cm at the widest point
240 cm tip to tip (straight edge)

used up 130g of pink, 94g of brown

edit after wearing. My apologies to the designer. The scarf should be triangular. I should not have doubted you.
