Trellis the Second
It's pretty rare that I knit the same pattern twice, but earlier this year my grandma asked me to knit her a Trellis Scarf. She liked mine, and wanted hers to be a darker blue.
Over the past few months, I had been making some progress on her scarf, but the approach of Christmas gave me the extra push to finish. And here it is!
Pattern: Trellis Scarf by Evelyn Clark, from Interweave Knits Spring 2006
Yarn: Jaggerspun Zephyr Wool-Silk in Aegean, less than 1 skein
Needles: Addi Natura US 1 1/2 (2.5 mm)
The only major modification I made to the pattern was altering the ending border. The pattern ends with a straight edge, which you block to points. However, this wasn't symmetrical enough for me, so I added in some make ones and decreases to the original chart.
Ending border on the left, beginning on the right.
I hope she likes it!
Happy holidays, everyone!

So pretty! It is a wonderful gift. I love your modifications. The two ends match very well.
It's fantastic!!
Very pretty! I think I'm going to have to add that to my queue!
It's really gorgeous!
Is there any chance you have notes on how you modified it at the other end? I could never knit it unless I could make it match!
Grandma loved the scarf is and so proud to wear it! It's beautiful.
You should feel honored that Grandma asked you to knit her a scarf. Of course she picked out the prettiest of patterns! Gorgeous!
