Falling Leaves Scarf w/ VIDEO

ABBREVIATIONS

KO – Knit over

EW – E-Wrap

Color A – Green

Color B – Orange

Pattern Notes: This pattern works with chart below. Work outer loom with color B, work inner loom with color A, except where marked on chart with ‘X’.

U Wrap: Wrap yarn around the front of the peg in a ‘U’ shape.

Two Color Reversible Technique: Work with 2 colors of yarn at the same time. Twist A and B clockwise, 2 times so that color B faces the outer loom and color A is toward the inner loom. Wrap same peg on both inner and outer looms. For the next stitch, wrap both strands 2 times counterclockwise between next pegs both inner and outer loom with color A toward the outer loom and color B, the inner. Note: Alternating the wrapping direction keeps the yarn from twisting.  See video.
