The FiftyFifty scarf is a double, plaid, two-coloured scarf knitted with the technique intarsia in the round (step by step pictures and links to video tutorials are included in the pattern). The open ends are sewn together in the end. The horisontal lines are worked while knitting and the vertical lines are crocheted afterwards (step by step pictures and link to a video tutorial are included in the pattern). A meditative project with possibilities to learn some new techniques!
