Several of my knitting pals recommended this gorgeous scarf pattern when I was hunting around for something new. It is especially nice when made in variegated colors and/or variable widths like Manos del Uruguay.

Yarn: Manos del Uruguay Wool
Color: Flame Multi (115)
Quantity: 2 skeins (138 yds. each)
Needles: size 11 SP
Pattern Link: http://www.sheepinthecity.prettyposies.com/archives/000079.html
This pattern is so much fun to knit and goes quickly once you get the hang of it. I'm listing the pattern here even though the link is above just because I've noticed a lot of dead links after a few years (sad).

*P2tog - purl 2 together

Instructions:
