This skinny scarf combines lightly raised ridges and double height stitches in an 8 row repeated pattern for a decorative addition to your wardrobe. Blocking really defines these stitches and leaves a loosely rolled item which sits and drapes beautifully.

It is easily resized by adding or removing stitches when casting on (just keep an odd number), or by using more yarn for an extra long scarf.

I loved using this yarn with short colour changes, but I think it would work equally well in a single colour which would show the stitches even more.

NB: The yarn was 100% merino at 400m in a 100g skein by Raindrop Yarns, not a nylon mix as shown. However it would work perfectly well with any 4ply weight yarn.
