This spectacular scarf has a similar look to short rows, without using short rows! Instead, stitches of different heights are used to make the growing and shrinking rows. Three color ways of Lion Brand Textures are used in this scarf, though you could also use 3 skeins of the same colorway and get a more muted, yet still very nifty, effect. So, grab your Lion Brand yarn and hook and get ready for the colder weather.
