This is another knit scarf, stitched entirely in a regular knit stitch. It's much like the other scarves I've made. The only real difference is the yarn I chose to use.

I was having one of those "funk" days, so ended up wondering around Wal-Mart. In their craft section, I came across this unusual fiber in the yarn section. It is Lion Brand Yarn's "Incredible," a ribbon yarn for knitting and crocheting. I'd never seen such a fiber before, so picked up a couple balls. I just love the blue variegated colors.

It took me a while to figure out what to make with it. I finally decided on a fashion scarf for my daughter's birthday. It was a bit tricky to work with because it is 100% nylon and very slippery. It also twisted easily while knitting. I finally came up with a system that worked for me. I'd unwind enough for a row, then put a rubber band around the ball. Knit the row. Then hold the ball up and let it unwind itself before repeating the process for the next row.

The ribbon yarn does not ravel, so I was able to give it some simple fringe.
