Glass Bottle Scarf – Bohoknits

This reversible scarf was designed with cold weather in mind. The pattern stitch is incredibly easy, so the knitting can get tedious, but is suitable for beginners. The lacy eyelets give the scarf some texture while trapping in warmth; they remind me of bubbles trapped in glass.

Do I knit with two strands of yarn or just one?

The pattern is written for one strand, but you certainly could use two held together….the scarf would be much bulkier, of course.
