This scarf is from a pattern in a magazine. I saw it and was really excited to do it and then was a little daunted by the complexity of the threading, treadling and weaving (color changes) so I simplified it. Then I kicked myself and said, "What's the point of picking patterns from a magazine if you aren't going to learn from it?" So, I bit the bullet and wove this absolutely lovely scarf. It was slow weaving, and required lots of concentration and uniterupted time, but doesn't it just sparkle? I did learn from it--and won't be doing something quite so complex for a time. But I gained confidence that I CAN do something like this and the results will be as lovely as the magazine photo.
