Liven up a simple 2-color brioche scarf with a scattering of horizontally striped stockinette bubbles. Both right and wrong sides are handsome – an important feature in a scarf. Since stockinette and brioche gauges differ, the bubbles create interesting undulations in the long lines of brioche rib.
