Dragon Tail Scarf is quick and quite easy to knit and can be knit in any yarn and in any length you want it to be. Both sides look almost the same and the only purled stitches are the second yarn overs of double yarn overs. This scarf is worked following a charted pattern. Lace patterns of this scarf are inspired by Bamboo Lace pattern htp://www.knittingand.com/knitting/patterns/lace/bamboo.htm).
