This fun little whimsy is a great way to use up some leftovers as well as play with color placement and gauge.

Worsted-weight stripes in bright colors contrast with lace-weight stripes in black. The whole thing is done in garter stitch on one needle. A loose gauge blends the two weights of yarn and makes for a wonderfully drapey and dramatic scarf that wraps around and around to form layers of gorgeous colors!
