Stegoscarf
A spiney 3-D sculptural super scarf.
Two distinct looks, depending on how it is folded/worn=
Flat gives 3 dimensional plated spines, while folded gives a zigzag.
Written (line by line abbreviated) and Charted pattern.
Beginner: Basic Lace Stitches, 3 Needle BO (or Kitchener) K, P, YO, SSK, K2TOG, S2KP (central double decrease)
Quick and simple knit. With only 2 different row patterns to memorize you won’t need to be eyeballing the chart/directions constantly - just relax and knit away on this Jumbo scarf.
Worked in two pieces - bottom up, joined at the center with either grafting (Kitchener) or a 3 needle BO.
No blocking necessary.
Easily modified for length and nice worked in any size of yarn as well, just make sure you are getting nice tight stitches and remember - the smaller the gauge, the more yarn you will need.
