this scarf pattern is knit with handpainted yarn sideways (long rows) instead of across. This creates a pleasing vertical pattern akin to the texture of a mixed or handpainted warp in weaving.

Working in our Corriedale/Corriedale cross woolen spun yarn, you just need one skein of the handpaint and one small skein of the solid for the rolled edge. Pattern has three length/width proportions. Other yarns that work well are the Tunis double twist or Targhee two ply. Comfortable & warm. this very (very) easy scarf will be one you grab all the time.
