I wanted a cozy scarf to go with my beautiful True North Toque and The Lumberjill Mittens, and I was so indecisive about how I wanted it to look. I tried working it up in multiple ways and frogging many times, finally I settled on a tube scarf because it gives it the cozy, thick feel, as well as, hiding all your floats from working the plaid pattern. As you’ll find below, I was still a bit indecisive on how I wanted it to look but I shared the multiple ways you can work it up below with a simple change to the pattern. This scarf doesn’t use too much yarn either, less than a skein in each color, which is nice on the bank. I hope you find it as cozy as I do and enjoy this pattern!
