See my Knitting With Honor project for more details on the story behind this pattern, and some extra pictures!

Here is the pattern to make a scarf about 4” wide (with the ribbing unstretched), and as long as you like. For a wider baldric, increase the number of CO stitches. The ribbing keeps it from curling up at the edges, and makes it effectively reversible; the extremely loose gauge creates the chain-link effect, and the combination of yarns makes it look metallic without being too shiny.

This pattern used far, far less than one skein of either yarn-- I made 2 identical scarves and still had a considerable amount leftover.

In addition to the needles and yarns mentioned, you will need:

• small knitting loom (the circular kind, approximately 5 pegs) OR small DPNs to make i-cord
• sewing needle
• gray thread
