Ocean Sunset Fisherman Rib Scarf



I just finished this for Wild Purls as a store sample. This was only inspired by Brooklyn Tweed's Noro scarf. I used the fisherman rib instead of the basic K1,P1 rib, and because of that, I changed colors every 4 rows instead of 2. I also used 3 colors because I wasn’t getting the color variation you get from Noro. This is 20 stitches wide, close to 60 in long (I stopped about an inch short) Generally, if this was for me, it would be another foot long. I like a good wrap - but it was for the store - and I already was using 4 balls of yarn. If it was longer more yarn would have been required

Rib Pattern: *K1, K1B* repeat to last 2 stitches, K2
