Manos del Uruguay Scarf


This is done with two skeins of the silk and wool blend of Manos del Uruguay yarn, one in a solid blue-grey and the other in a variegated that included the same blue-grey color. On a US 7 needle, I cast on an uneven number of stitches and knit back and forth as follows:
Row 1 (solid color): *K1, Sl 1 with yarn in front* across, end K1. Turn work.
Row 2 (solid color): Purl all sts. Turn work.
Row 3 (variegated color): *K1, Sl 1 with yarn in front* across, end K1. Turn work.
Row 4 (variegated color): Knit all sts. Turn work.
The left image shows the side with Rows 1 and 3, the right image shows the side with Rows 2 and 4. Frankly, I like the right image best!
