Pattern
The pattern was a bit confusing at first (the only time I've ever done short rows was a couple weeks ago when I did the heel and gusset of my first sock). Once I figured it out, it was pretty easy and it went really fast. I actually knit this up in a week, but have been postponing posting it because it's for a friend. One thing I was disappointed with, was that my short rows were very obvious. I think it might have been due to the choice of yarn (the smoother the yarn, the more the stitch definition shows).
Yarn
All I can say is, wow!!! It was so incredibly soft on the fingers and wonderful to knit with!! I have heard that it pills quite a bit with repeated washing, so it's (sadly) probably not good for a sweater project or the like. But a fun soft and warm scarf - perfect!
