Dream in Texture is a beginner-friendly fantasy of knit/purl stitch patterns. It begins and ends with just a few stitches (no lengthy cast on or bind off, thank you), and the mash-up of four easy stitch patterns makes for an entertaining knit. On wrong side rows, stitches are knitted as they appear, so most of the knitting is intuitive. When you are done, this cozy reversible scarf will look handsome from every angle. (In fact, the “wrong side” is shown in the second photo!)

Instructions are fully written, with optional charts.
