New Scarf

I have finished the knitted legwarmers and I have now started a new scarf. It's going to be navy blue and pastel pink in stripes. So far, I've been having problems with how wide the scarf turns out to be. Normally, I like my scarves on the narrow side of medium, since I think that the wide ones make my neck look short. I plan on getting a webcam eventually and I'll take pictures of the completed scarf, assuming that I'm going to eventually finish, of course.

I used Plymouth Encore Worsted Weight in Navy Blue and light Pink (two blue balls, and one pink ball) on size 8 dpns.

Notes:
- This is a stockinette scarf, so all rows are knit.
- When the rows for the stripes are shorter, simply carry up the yarn since it will show only on the inside of the scarf, which no one will see

Pattern:

CO 44 sts in Blue (B), pm, and join w/o twisting
Work in B for 9 rows
Join Pink (P) and work for 3 rows
Switch to B for 2 rows
Switch to P for 3 rows; cut P
*Join B and work 22 rows
Join P and work 2 rows
Switch to B and work 3 rows; cut B
Join P and work 22 rows
Join B and work 2 rows
Switch to P and work 3 rows; cut P.
Rep from * until length desired. End with 22 rows of B.
In P, work 3 rows
In B, work 2 rows
In P, work 3 rows
In B, work 9 rows
Create fringe and attach to both ends, using the fringe to seal the ends shut. You can always graft/sew the ends shut if you don't like that.

End.
