ii Scarf by Lindsay Degen

Craft: Knitting

This pattern is available on Ravelry(goes to new website).

This stockinette scarf in cuddly Maxima lies flat at the edges, thanks to some nearly-invisible 1x1 ribbing at each side. A few broad stripes lead up to some entry-level intarsia that makes this a great introduction to the technique!
