I completed the second scarf for the 5th Mystery Project. These scarves are just plain Garter Stitch with a decrease on each end every other row after starting with 100 cast-on stitches and finishing with two stitches left on the needle.

It took all day, dovetailing with other projects, but Block 8 is finished. The wavy or chevron shaping on the body of this block is created by working stitches that gradually ascend and then descend in height. Three stitches are worked into one stitch at the highest peak of the pattern, and three stitches are decreased into one at the lowest point.

Isn't this a pretty pattern? I can visualize it made into a vest or sweater. How striking that would be. Hmmmm, maybe a future design?
