INSTRUCTIONS

The pattern is worked in the round on a multiple of 6 sts.

 

Using larger needle and Merino 5, cast on 282 sts. Place marker and join, taking care not to twist sts. Purl one round.

 

Begin pattern:

There is only one row to the pattern, but colors are changed every 4 rows to create “entrelac-like” pattern.

 

Pattern row: * K2, yo, K2, K2 tog.* all around. 

 

Repeat this round for 4 rounds.  Change to Danube Aran and work this round for 4 rounds.  Continue in this manner, alternating every 4 rounds between Merino 5 and Danube Aran until 9 color sections are completed, ending by working Merino 5.

 

Continuing with Merino 5, knit one round even.

 

Decrease round: K6, * K4, K2 tog*.  Repeat between * around – 236 sts.

 

Change to smaller circular needle and work in K1-P1 rib for 1”.  Bind off in rib.

 

Wet thoroughly and block, placing a pin in each point.

 

Optional: Use a shawl pin to secure fold in infinity scarf if desired.

 

Suggestions for wearing:  The scarf can be worn long or wrapped twice around the neck as for a cowl.
