Basic ribbing is thrown for a loop in this infinity scarf that never ends until you want it to. Each successive round skews the pattern by one stitch, tilting the vertical ribs and eliminating the need to keep track of row counts. Make the scarf as narrow or as wide as you desire. (Remember to adjust yardage accordingly.)
