I don’t have the colorwork design skills necessary to include the intersex flag--I’m really sorry. EDIT 6/22: Please see FroggyDude13’s comments for a suggestion on how to incorporate the Intersex flag! You’ll need 100g of yellow and 50g of purple for that one.

Size: The scarf is approximately 7ft by 8in (213cm by 20cm) unblocked, but the width varies slightly by flag.

Skill Level: Beginner.
* Most of the scarves only require you to be able to cast on, bind off, knit, and switch colors at the beginning of a row, but the progress and demisexual scarves require you to pick up stitches.

Materials: Fingering to light sport-weight yarn, one 50g skein (approx. 180 yards) per color for most scarves.
* The three-color and demisexual scarves require more than one skein of some or all colors. Details are provided in the pattern.
