Free Knit Lana's Scarf Pattern

Instructions are confusing

I am attempting to knit this scarf and have found the instructions to be very confusing. In particular, the 14-17 rows and 18 to 23rd rows as listed have made me rewrite the instructions in a row by row fashion. While it make take more writing space, it will allow me to make progress much easier.

• I'm sorry to hear that this one has caused you grief and that you needed to write it out long hand. While each designer tries their hardest to create easy-to-navigate patterns, sometimes it just doesn't work for everyone. This one in particular is written in a way that allows for brevity and reduces redundant rows/instructions.

Marker is a problem

You are instructed to place a marker after row 11 and to keep it in place 6 stitches from the end for the remainder of the pattern. It's not possible to do this, since the pattern continues to instruct you to shape with increases and decreases beyond the marker, it just doesn't stay in place, it's constantly moving after you complete each row, it's not feasible to use the marker, it worked best to drop the marker and just work to the last 6 stitches.

I find this pattern difficult to follow. Can you give me simple instructions?

when are color changes made? Pattern appears to use color B for the first 17 rows, is this correct?
