This fine, delicate scarf is worked from side to side. A play of increases and decreases shapes its silhouette. Knit and purl stitches interlock to create a checkerboard pattern, like the squares of a chocolate bar revealing themselves row after row. A pattern that’s simple in construction but rich in texture, for an elegant and timeless piece.
