Pattern instructions : (Using U.S terminology)

Please note that I start all my rows with a ch 1, turning chain for ease.

Please check the top of this blog (as well as through the blog) for easy video tutorials on all stitches used in today's pattern.

Please read through all my notes before you pick up your hook, so you know just where we're heading in our pattern.

Today, we’re creating an asymmetric triangular scarf.

This just means that we start with a few stitches and then keep working, increasing along one side – such that we have one straight side (that goes around neck) and a growing triangle along the other side that is fashionably draped around the chest ;)

The beauty of this pattern is that you can make it as long as you want – just keep working till you finish your skein.. how easy is that, right?

As I said before, the yarns used really do not matter. However this is a pattern that will work really well with yarns that have a long color change. This easy pattern will look oh, so complicated when the rows run seemingly diagonally and each in a different color (when draped).

For Indians, I’d say that the Vardhman Crayons and Fashionista will work well, as will Spectrum acrylic yarn. I’d say that the Hobby India Ganga acrowool multicolor yarn will also be lovely and light. Do try it out and lemme know how this works for you.

Have fun and do remember to share my blog post when you show off your creation.
