Explore the collusion of texture and colour with this delectably easy stitch sampler scarf. Garter, seed, and moss stitch, paired with two strands of colour, explode off the fabric in a gorgeous, addictive way.

The scarf is knit flat with an I-cord on both edges. Every row begins with k3 and ends with sl 3 to create the I-cord edge.
The scarf is knit using two strands of yarn held together. The MC is carried throughout the pattern and is combined with a different colour from the mini-skeins to create a gradient effect.
The measurements mentioned in the instructions refer to the knitting pre-blocking. It will grow slightly when blocked and thus the finished measurements are different.
