Playful, striking, or purposeful — your palette choice will determine the mood of this chevron scarf. Bevel can be worked in Loft for lightweight warmth or in Arbor for greater drape and heft as well as a larger size. The pattern calls for three contrast colors, but using scraps in a gradient or as bright accents opens up limitless possibilities. Yarn
