Sometimes scale is everything. Using the familiar Old Shale pattern for this fringed scarf, working just one pattern repeat with a double strand of dark, richly variegated yarn produces a chunky effect. This scarf was started by knitting a diamond shape for the center, then by picking up stitches along the diamond's edges and working downward for the tails.
Finished Size: About 6" (15 cm) wide and 72" (183 cm) long, excluding fringe.
Yarn: Mountain Colors Mountain Goat (55% mohair, 45% wool; 230 yd [210 m]/100 g): pine needle, 3 skeins. (Two skeins will make a scarf about 6" [15 cm] wide and 57" [145 cm] long.)
Yarn weight: #4 - Medium
Gauge: 11 sts and 19 rows = 4" (10 cm) in seed st with yarn doubled.
Needles: Size 11 (8 mm). Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain the correct gauge.
Notions: Tapestry needle; crochet hook.
