Learn to make the prefect light, yet cozy scarf. It looks complicated, but is really quite simple. By combining a few simple stitches and mixing and matching as your mood strikes, you will create a fun and unique signature look. This is a great project for those who want to knit with out having to depend on a pattern.

Materials: One skein Koigu or Noro sock yarn or other fingering weight yarn, size 9 or 10 needles. Optional (for extra softness and texture), a carry along yarn such as a lace weight mohair or cashmere.
