This is a perfect garment to play with (endless) color combinations! You can go with high contrast as I’ve done for the sample or low contrast, depending on the colors used.

The scarf is worked in Linen stitch and slip-stitch Diamond pattern. The edges of the Diamond pattern are finished with slip-stitch crochet for the final touch.
The pattern is charted.
