I began the scarf on June 1. I finished the body of the scarf on June 9th and the tails were all woven in by June 11th. Fringe was added this morning, June 12.
Here are pics taken outside in daylight. I think it gives the best representation of the colors.

The details:
I chained 42 for my foundation chain, worked first dc into the 4th chain from hook and used ch-2 for my turning chain. All rows are worked in double crochet.
For gauge, I followed a general rule of 2.5 rows per inch and used doctorwhoscarf.com inches pattern for reference (with permission). I multiplied it out using the general rule for fractions - if it's over a half inch, go up. In other words, if I needed 6.5", I multiplied 6 x 2.5. The result is 16.25 which is less than sixteen and a half, so I dropped the quarter and made it 16. If I needed 5.5" I multiplied 5.5 x 2.5 and got 13.75 which is more than thirteen and a half so I went up to 14 rows.
Pattern can be found at my Doctor Who weebly site (under My Scarves) at http://gallifreyancrochetin.weebly.com/
Happy crocheting!
