This versatile reversible double-knit scarf adds a lovely accent to your ensemble.

The feathered arrow motif is a traditional design in Japan, often used in kimono and other garments. The arrow shape symbolizes progress, aspiration and prosperity.

The pattern is intended for knitters that are new to double knitting, using simple cast-on, bind-off and selvedge treatment so you can focus more on the main body of double knitting.
