Diagonal Scarf

This blue scarf is so soft and squishy, perfect for cold temperatures. This scarf was made for a man, but I think this pattern would be lovely with any yarn or color. 

I used one skein of Simply Soft in Country Blue with size 8 needles. 

Co 42 sts

Row 1: k1, *p2, k2; rep from * to last st, k1

Row 2: rep row 1

Row 3: k1, *k1, p2, k1; rep from * to last st, k1

Row 4: k1, *p1, k2, p1; rep from * to last st, k1

Row 5: k1, *k2, p2; rep from * to last st, k1

Row 6: rep row 5

Row 7: rep row 4

Row 8: rep row 3

Repeat rows 1-8 until desired length. 

Bo on a row 8. Fasten off and weave in ends. Cut 12" pieces of yarn for fringe. Add one piece of yarn for each st. 

This stitch moves one to the left every 2 rows, forming a diagonal rib. 

The finished scarf is 7"x58", not including fringe. The fringe adds another 12", giving the scarf 70" total. 

This scarf is just so soft and squishy, I hate to give it away as a gift! I'll have to make myself one!
