This scarf is specially designed to observe Eunice Kennedy Shriver Day using the colors of the 2012 Scarves for Special Olympics Red Heart Yarns colors.
The scarf is knitted in a Modified Chevron Stitch pattern which gives it a zigzag design.
Although the pattern requires more than the basic knit stitches, I personally think that it is still a quick knit. Blocking helps to eliminate curling of scarf.
