Lotus Scarf Pattern-Almost

This week I have been working on writing up the pattern for the Lotus Scarf that I knitted in soy silk. I am knitting the test project in hand spun alpaca, but have found that I like the stitch definition of the soy silk better. Any smooth drapey yarn would work. Textured handspun with a bit of shine would be even better
The original scarf was knitted in one long piece which means that the flowers are upside down on one side and the ends do not have the same scallop. I am writing this version so that the lace reverses direction at the mid point.
These are photos of the original scarf.
I hope to have the pattern done by Monday.
