The figures on this scarf are the Aztec twins Xochiquetzal (goddess of flowers, weavers, and embroiderers) and Xochipilli (god of dance, games, and music). These images are adapted from those in the Codex Fejérváry-Mayer.

The pattern includes stranded-style charts, doubleknit style charts, and complete written instructions for the charts. The written instructions are in a separate file.

I suggest 8 stitch markers. The sample used about 730 yards (668m) each of two colors. Vivax is a lightweight lace yarn. The gauge is only a suggestion.
