I have followed the directions perfectly. I even ripped out 20 rows and started over. It does not look like the picture. Have you had anyone else with this problem. I'm not going to rip it out again. It is pretty, just not what the picture showed and I'm dissapointed.

I am sorry, you had to rip

I am sorry, you had to rip out your work. The stitch pattern for the scarf is relatively simple and is given as a chart so that you could easily visualize it. Try to block your work to make the pattern more vivid and maybe then you will understand which part of the scarf doesn't look right.

Could you please explain what this part of the pattern means?

"All wrong side rows: work sts as they present themselves"

Thank you-

ElenBB, this phrase means

ElenBB, this phrase means that in wrong side rows you should knit stitches that were purled in right side row and purl stitches that were knit in right side row.
