Voltage Scarf

This listing is for a pattern download from XandyPeters.com. If you want this pattern added to your Ravelry library, please follow this link to purchase directly from Ravelry.

This scarf has a slight 3D illusion. Stripes provide color contrast; shaping creates the chevron pattern; and the final addition of short rows changes the thickness of each stripe. As the stripes become thick and thin, they almost appear to pop forward off the scarf. As a bonus, the Parakeet (green) color is UV reactive and glows under blacklight.
