This pattern was well-written and easy to follow. My scarf looks just like the one pictured in the pattern! I used an entire skien of Mandala Yarn, and the scarf is quite long. I used a stitch marker at the end of my ch3 to end each row before turning, and it made it easy to figure out where to place the last hdc of each row. Once I had that figured out, the scarf went pretty quickly. I'm now using a completely different yarn (type & weight) to make another scarf, and the diagonal stitch pattern looks great.

The colors and the quality of this yarn is great! I made the scarf using the pattern and it came out really well! I was able to follow the instructions the pattern gave well, even for a new crocheting 13-year-old!

I used this yarn for a scarf for my gran-daughter and intend to make this one for myself. Th yarn handles nicely.
