100% reversible scarf combining two knitting techniques: MARLISLE with REVERSIBLE COLORWORK

Here is the pattern I imagined for the 2023 Advent Calendar – Biscotte Yarns. Knitted in Bis-Sock and Dolce, it is so soft you won’t want to part with it! To create this pattern, I combined two techniques so the result is an equally beautiful pattern on both sides, with no yarn float on the wrong side.

NOTES: This scarf is knit lengthwise, meaning you’ll be casting on lots of stitches but knitting a few rows. Have no fear if you’ve never experienced the Marlisle or reversible Fairisle technique! I’ll explain how to do it, and you’ll see that it’s fun and, all in all, pretty easy once you understand the principle
