A good scarf is more than just a way to stay warm, it’s part of the wearer’s personality. Enter Briquette. This cozy long scarf features a highly textured stitch pattern that’s simple to knit, with an easy-to-follow chart and a pattern that’s memorizable, yet varied enough to keep you interested.

It’s perfect for men or women, and can be easily customized in width and length. Briquette works well in many different yarns, from a rugged semi-solid or tweedy wool for winter comfort, to a plant fiber blend for a breezier style.

The boxes stitch pattern is charted and written.
