A new crochet project...

I have really taken a leap from basic fingerless gloves and beenies! I decided I really wanted a different looking scarf and spent some time searching Ravelry to find a free pattern. I had a lovely 10ply wool in a stormy purple in my stash that I've been wanting to find an appropriate project for, and finally found something that looked suitable.

Hmmm...well, it seems that it must have been rated by really experienced crocheters lol, coz even though it was rated on the easy end of the scale of 1-10, it sure is stretching my pattern reading skills! I can see there is a bit of a pattern occuring, but equally, I know I've messed up my interpretation a few times. I figured it doesn't really matter so much since it's a scarf, and I still like the way that it's working up.

Maybe I'll have it figured out by the time I'm finished!
