This simple scarf perfectly pairs those colorfully variegated, gradient, or self-striping yarns with luxurious mohair. Knit on the bias using Ribbon Stitch gives this scarf a beautiful texture that is so simple to do.

If mohair is not your jam, you call always choose to use another solid or tonal fingering yarn instead. The texture of the stitches will look slightly different, but equally beautiful.
