From Pattern:

“A simple and quick steeked scarf knit lengthwise in the round.

Two yarns are used. One is a sari silk yarn; the other is worsted weight wool. Cutting through the steek and knotting the ends makes the fringe. There are no ends to weave in! This scarf would be a great way to play with steeking for the first time. Cutting open a scarf steek isn’t nearly as scary as cutting a Fair Isle sweater.

This scarf was designed for the Red Scarf Project, which sends scarves at Valentine’s Day to college students who have aged out of the foster care system. These young men and women have no support network; a gift can be just the boost they need to keep going.
