Barwon Scarf

This bulky knit textured scarf offers a relaxing and mediative knit. Simple knit and purl stitches combine effortlessly to create a textured chevron stitch pattern that is so much easier to knit than it appears. The stitch pattern is reversible making this the perfect scarf that will fly off the needles. The pattern derives its name from a meandering local river.
