This unisex scarf has an extreme chevron motif evoking the image of a forested mountain range with peaks and valleys. Worked in a self striping yarn, this scarf will take on the personality of the any colors you choose, ranging from bright and cheerful to dark and subtle.
The colorwork is done entirely with stacked increases and decreases, the same type of stitches used in the Fox Paws project, at an entry level of difficulty. If you are new to these techniques, you can find introductory tutorials on youtube:
