Spectacular Single Skein Scarf
This simple lace scarf was designed for that gorgeous skein of luxurious hand dyed yarn that you couldn't resist buying. It's completely reversible and there is almost no waste as you can keep knitting till you get to the end of your yarn. It uses the very easy faggot stitch.
Materials:
You can use any yarn with the appropriate sized needle that gives the dense finished appearance. Gauge is not critical. I used a single skein of Dashing Dachs 50/50 Merino/Silk in the Mahna Mahna colourway with size 10 (6mm) needles.
Pattern:
CO 26 st (or a multiple or 2) using the backwards loop method. Every row - k1, \*yo, k2tog,\* repeat between\*\* to last stitch, sl1p. Continue till the scarf is as long as you want it to be, or you are almost out of yarn. CO using Jeny's Interlock Bind off method. http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEss11/FEATinterlock.php Weave in your ends and block gently lengthwise to preserve the density of the stitch pattern.
