Crocus Scarf but different

I started the Crocus Scarf according to the design by Laura Rintala.
I used :- Yarn: 4 ply acrylic
Hook: 4 mm

Ch 315, turn.

Row 1: Dc in 4th ch from hook and in each ch across—313 dc.
Row 2: Ch 3 (counts as dc), 2 dc in first dc, *ch 2, sk 3 dc, sc in next dc,
ch 5, sk 3 dc, sc in next dc, ch 2, sk 3 dc, 5 dc in next dc; rep from *
24 more times, ch 2, sk 3 dc, sc in next dc, ch 5, sk 3 dc, sc in next
dc, ch 2, 3 dc in top of turning ch (tch), turn.
Row 3: Ch 4, (counts as dc, ch 1), sk first dc, dc in next dc, ch
1, dc in next dc, ch 2, *sc in ch-5 sp, ch 2, [dc in next dc, ch
1] 4 times, dc in next dc, ch 2; rep from * 24 more times,
sc in next ch-5 sp, ch 2, [dc in next dc, ch 1] 2 times, dc in
3rd ch of tch, turn.
Row 4: Ch 5 (counts as dc, ch 2), sk first dc, dc in next dc, ch
2, dc in next dc, *[dc in next dc, ch 2] 4 times, dc in next
dc; rep from * 24 more times, [dc in dc, ch 2] 2 times, dc
in 3rd ch of tch.
Row 5: Ch 3, *2 dc in ch-2 sp, dc in next dc; rep from *
across.

{I stopped following the pattern at this point. Instead of repeating rows 2-5 once more, I repeated rows 2-5 on the foundation chain. I still haven't added the edging. I'm trying to decide if I should increase the width or add edging and end the scarf}



Rep Rows 2–5 once more; do not turn. 
Edging: Rotate to work along short end (row edge) of scarf. 
Set-up row: 3 dc in ch-3 sp, 17 dc evenly across short end, turn.
Row 1: Ch 5, sk 2 dc, sc in next dc, ch 4, sk 2 dc, sc in next dc,
ch 2, sk 2 dc, 5 dc in next dc, ch 2, sk 3 dc, sc in next dc, ch
4, sk 2 dc, sc in next dc, ch 4, sc in top of last dc, turn.
Row 2: Ch 2, sc in ch-4 sp, ch 4, sc in next ch-4 sp, ch 2, dc
in next dc, ch 1, [dc in next dc, ch 1] 4 times, ch 2, sc in
next ch-4 sp, ch 4, sc in next ch-4 sp turn.
Row 3: Ch 2, sc in next ch-4 lp, ch 2, dc in next sc, [dc in
next dc, ch 2] 5 times, dc in next sc, ch 2, sc in next ch-4
sp. Fasten off.
Join yarn with sl st to corner of opposite short end. Ch 3, 19
dc evenly across rem sts of short end, turn. Rep edging Rows
1–3 for opposite end. Fasten off. Weave in loose ends. Block
