Fair Isle Rapids by Kieran Foley

I am so much amazed with beautiful scarves design by Kieran Foley that I just want to knit them right then. But it's too difficult and there are lots of obstacles for me. A beautiful design  always asks for a high-level knitting skill and fussy in every detail.
So in order to make a scarf from a given design one should contribute a lot of time and pain-taking work. 
I envy his ability to knit.
This is one of my favorite patterns.
