Lichen Stone Scarf
Lichen Stone is a scarf of simple broken rib, with a slight twist added by slanted ends that come to a gentle point for a parallelogram shape. All sides are neatly finished: the ends are with a tubular cast-on and bind off, and the edges have slipped selvedges.
Instructions are written to make it easy to modify the length and width of your scarf: you could even make it really wide, and reduce the length of the central section for an unusual parallelogram-shaped shawl! This also makes it easy to make the scarf with different weights of yarn, if you are happy to compensate for the difference in gauge.
