Semo Pass (Semo La) is a mountain pass in Central Tibet and at
over 18,000 feet may be the highest vehicle-accessible pass in the
world. This knitted design, however, is accessible to almost any
knitter, no matter the skill level. Semo can be a scarf or a wrap, and
can be worked in any weight and amount of yarn. Offset increases
and decreases give an asymmetrical subtle zig-zag shape to simple,
meditative stitching.

If you substitute yarns, use an appropriately sized needle
that gives you a fabric you like. This simple design gives
you many modification possibilities, for instance:
Use garter stitch throughout
Change to a different color for Part 2
Alternate colors every two rows for stripes
Use larger needle size for more drape
Change number of stitches worked between
increases and decreases
