I finally decided on a tube scarf as the curly fringe edging would create a sort of sea anemone-ish look. This scarf is knit using the cross stitch method – a method usually used for creating mock cables and other texture patterns. When an entire row is knit using crossed stitches it creates and interesting twisted texture, plus it’s a heck of a lot more fun that plain ol’ stockinette. This scarf could easily be knit in the round – just knit the purl rows and add one more Cr instead of the two knit stitches on the texture rows…
