The Sinuous Pencil Scarf is neckwear designed to look like a pencil. It is a perfect gift for teachers, artists, or anyone who wants an interesting piece of apparel.

The design offers five sizes in two widths to fit everyone from babies to adults. While the barrel of the pencil is great tv-watching knitting, the ends, the five colors, and the five stitch patterns will keep your interest. This scarf has a smooth, slip-stitch edging, lots of warm squishy ribbing, and is reversible.

This pattern has been tech edited by two people and test knit by 12, so it should be very accurate. Yet, if you do happen to find any errors or have any problems, I am here to help, so feel free to message me and I will respond quickly.
