Wandering Stripe Scarf
Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®
GAUGE:
16 sts + 22 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
STITCH EXPLANATION:
Seed Stitch Row 1: *K1, p1, rep from * to end.
Row 2: P the knit sts and k the purl sts as they appear.
Rep Row 2 for Seed st.
NOTES:
Colors and stitch patterns used are changed throughout the Scarf. New colors are sometimes added in the middle of the row. Leave 4 in. (10 cm) length of new and old color hanging loose when changing colors. Do not weave in ends.

Wandering Stripe Scarf Reviewed by Mey-Ling Brizuela on 2010-12-27
Great scarf!! I did make one color change just because I couldn't find the "pea green" colored yarn, so I used chocolate brown instead and I loved it. Will definitely make another ( I ordered the missing yarn on line). Will try the previous suggestion of knitting 3 stitches on either end to keep it straight.
