“Tasai” is the Japanese word for “Variety” or “Variegated”.

The Tasai Scarf is a crescent shaped scarf, worked sideways with short rows.

The pattern has both charts and line-by-line directions.

The sample in the first picture is composed by 9 sections knitted in two colors, but the Tasai scarf looks really nice also in one color, and can be shortened or elongated by working less or more triangles.
The depth of the scarf is not affected by the number of triangles.
