Checkered Path Scarf

Quantity:
This fun-to-knit, unisex scarf in two sizes (petite/tall) will appeal to any friend or family member who loves a rugged, outdoorsy look. The fabric design is worked in larger sections of contrasting texture to make great use of a marled or speckled yarn and of course, a solid or heathered shade as well. The yummy, two-tone cable adds just a bit more depth and interest. This is easy knitting at its best—almost every row of the pattern is worked the same on the right and wrong side, so it makes a great beginner or travel project.
This pattern is both written and charted and can be transferred to your Ravelry Library upon request.
