Montego Bay Scarf

     I finally finished my Montego Bay Scarf.  Even though I have seen alot of people post about how this pattern was mindless knitting, I had quite a bit of trouble with it.  I probably knitted it three times, I ripped it out four times and tinked back constantly.  I really had to keep track of the rows and for the first half, had to count the stitches after every row I completed.  I think I kept skipping YO's and that threw the pattern off. 
     I am really glad I finished it, though I felt like throwing it a few times.  I learned the pattern well by the time I was about half way done with it.  I learned how to find the mistakes and fix them without ripping back.

  I love the color and the yarn.  Specs-Montego Bay Scarf

I found you through the Knitty-a-long. Your Montego Bay Scarf is the prettiest I've seen yet. I love the way the color changes work with that pattern.

Touche!
