UPDATE There were a couple issues with the colour chart in the first PDF I uploaded, so I’ve fixed them and updated the PDF. Just make sure if you’ve already downloaded it to download it again.

I designed this scarf for my Dad for Christmas, because he often has to be outdoors in the cold. I wanted to be sure that it would be windproof, so it is knit at a slightly tighter gauge than usual, and since it is knit with three strands it is very thick. Feel free to take the chart and adapt it for other uses, but be mindful that the fabric produced is quite sturdy and will not drape the same way knitting usually does.
