This is a slipped-stitch reversible double-knit scarf with horizontal stripes on one side and vertical stripes on the other.

Both sides look like flat stockinette without a purl pump in sight. Even experienced knitters will be amazed at how magical this effect is. It looks absolutely impossible, but it’s surprisingly easy.

Even if you’ve never done double knitting you can create this gorgeous double knit scarf. It works up fast and is so much fun to knit!
