Contour Scarf is a versatile, unisex design perfect for the whole family to keep your neck warm during the cold season. This scarf is worked in an easy, engaging ridged rib pattern with built-in I-cord edges for a more polished look.
All increases and decreases are incorporated into the pattern repeats, forming a triangle shape.
Optionally – for an extra touch, you can add a crochet border in contrasting color as one more cute detail.
It’s a perfect project to make a holiday gifts for your loved ones or just for relaxed knitting.

Contour Scarf is worked from tip to tip with incorporated increases and decreases and built-in I-cord edges.
Optionally – you can add a contrasting crochet border once the scarf is completed.
