Absolutely classic with a minimalist touch, this pattern is easy to wear. The compact watch cap style beanie will be an instant favorite. At 66 inches long, this scarf is sized for taller folks.

Easy to follow instructions invite the knitter’s participation in the design. To create the “random rib” pattern in this scarf, pick a sequence of numbers that have significance to you or just create a look that you like. My sequence is significant in it’s randomness, inspired by the principal of uncertainty.

Once the sequence is set by the first row, read knits and purl stitches from the row below and repeat it for the length of the piece. Feel free to change the sequence of the small stripe at the beginning and end of the piece to reflect a date, age, or other number sequence.
