The Soul Sister Scarf is worked from one tip to the other. The scarf is knitted in the puff rib stitch, which makes it squishy and warm.

The Soul Sister Scarf comes in two sizes. The length of the scarfs can easily be modified. Just keep adding more rows for a bigger version. You can also finish the shawl by adding tassels or pom poms to the tips.

Yarn

Note: The pattern uses a strand of fingering weight yarn held together with a strand of lace weight yarn, but they can be substituted for a single strand of DK weight yarn. If you wish to work a DK weight version, omit all the instructions where it says “hold the yarns together” and follow only the yarn amount requirements for the fingering weight yarn.
