The diamond pattern is one of the mosaic patterns (or slip stitch patterns). You can knit the diamonds as a surface without an intermediate pattern, here I have arranged the diamonds in mirrored bands! I complemented the mosaic pattern with frizzy waves, which form a bright contrast to the diamonds.

If you would like to knit this scarf, you have the option here:

I just don’t sell instructions because developing them is very time-consuming. I offer you 8 material variants that you can knit from, you choose the color yourself.
Depending on the material, the material weighs and costs differently, and the scarf also has different widths depending on the needle size. You can find the exact information on how much wool you need when making your selection.

Material here: 100 g Mora “Piedras”, 150 g Caprino “Paris Night”

For this scarf I recommend a strong contrast of wool colors. When using gradient yarn, the pattern could fade into the background.

The kit contains your wool, the instructions you receive per PDF

What else do you need?

Circular knitting needles in a size that matches your material: 60 cm long is enough because you are knitting the scarf from the narrow side. If you want to knit a border around the entire scarf, you will also need a long circular needle (100-120 cm) of the same needle size.

Leftover thread smooth (e.g. cotton), possibly. Stitch marker, 1 crochet hook if, like me, you want to crochet the stitches for the provisional cast on.

You want to knit a matching bag to this scarf? No problem, here you find also “Thin Diamonds”- and “Thick Diamonds”- Bag (thin or thick wool) as pattern.

Knitting using the slip stitch technique is fun:

a two-colored result, but when knitting you only have one working thread in your hand. In the dark double rows/rounds the light stitches appear by lifting the stitches from the previous double row and vice versa in the light rows/rounds the dark stitches appear. Between slips there are only knit and purl stitches. Their arrangement creates a play of light and dark.
