Quick Pineapple Peacock Scarf

I came up with this on the spot.  Takes a couple hours to make and it's extremely customizable in length and yarn.  This was yarn I got from another sweater that I bought for a couple dollars from the thrift store.  This pattern is for personal use only it took me a couple hours to make the pattern, please respect that.  Do not sell the final product or the pattern.  Thanks!

I wanted to get this done before  it got too cold out.  I may be able to still wear it hopefully this year.  Very comfortable and warm.  It is an adaptation of a Portuguese pattern.  Yes, I said Portuguese and I didn't translate it.  There was an illustration and it went from there.  The yarn was originally a man's sweater that I unraveled that I got a a thrift store (yey for recycling!).  Sorry for the not-so-good picture. I had a better one, but I accidentally deleted it :-( The link for the original pattern is: http://www.pingouin.com.br/receitas/receitas3.php?gRecOutrasIdInt=53&gReceitaIdInt=17
