The Calamistrata scarf combines the practicality of a thick winter scarf with an atypical shape to create a fun pattern that looks much more complicated than it is. Increases and decreases on the edge paired with cables in the center create a gentle, wavy edge, while an alternating background of garter stitch and reverse stockinette adds depth and prevents curling. The sample is shown in Malabrigo Merino Worsted in Geranio.
