OK, this only took me about 4 hours total to finish and I am SO excited - I didn’t have to frog anything! Woo Hoo! My first project that I didn’t screw up during it!

I was also excited that my beginning chain was EXACTLY 40 inches, as recommended (152 chain - 40 inches). I had used an E hook because I loosely crochet.

However, this scarf if really small…no way my large head could wear it at all unless I figured out how to really really really stretch it. In my case, I would use this same pattern but enlarge it - not just use a larger hook, but add to it all the way around. More for a petite head. I will add photos and you will see how it barely fits on my mannequin (opposite of the mannequin photo on the pattern, where it seems almost large.)

Very nicely done….I think there is only one problem with the instructions in one section but I do not know how to fix it, so won’t go there. Left a large stitch area, despite my reading and reading and re-reading - I did it correctly as written. Oh well…..
