Notes

I made this for Lulu using two 50g balls and 13 stitches as per pattern on the yarn label. The yarn itself is lovely and warm - colour is great too. Bought four more balls for another project but had serious scarf envy when I kept seeing Lulu wearing hers. Made mine a little wider and two balls longer. Took a few hours to knit, very quick pattern but the interesting stitch makes it look nicer than straight stocking stitch.
My pattern variation:
Cast on 18 stitches not the recommended 13.
1st Row - knit every stitch, wrapping wool twice round needle for every stitch.
2nd Row - purl every stitch, dropping extra wool round needles from previous row.
Repeat 1st & 2nd rows until desired length is reached. Cast off.
