Absolute Zero is an easy to knit, multi-color scarf. The stitch pattern is easy to memorize and it’s a great project to work on while watching a knitting podcast on YouTube, or an exciting game of football!

You’ll be able to keep track of where you are at any given time, it’s that fun and that easy.

The scarf is also generously long giving you many options for wearing it, plus, it will keep you super cozy and warm!
