I must confess that I have a particular liking for handdyed Japanese
Eisaku Noro wool and silk. Unfortunately it is quite expensive, being what it is. So, usually I only get about 200g of each colour combination and turn them into a scarf. The advantage of that is the amount of time it takes to finish which is: hardly any! If I could ever bring myself to give them away I could also match the colours to the person lucky enough to receive such a treasure. (My daughter owns one in her favourite shades of lilac and purple, I am not completely heartless.)
The pattern is easy enough, it is either 1knit1purl and 1purl1knit on the back row, or 1knit1purl and on the back row the same, 1knit1purl.

Middle pattern: 1k1p - 1p1k. On both sides: 1k1p - 1k1p. |

Yes, I do like shades of blue |
( Eisaku Noro wool&silk is available in the haberdashery department of
John Lewis and from other mail order wool suppliers.)
