Chevron scarves

I really want to make a couple of these…one for myself, and one for Hyewon–it’s such a great pattern, and it makes variegated yarn (which i don’t usually like) do amazing things. It’s a popular project on the Internet these days; there’s a knitalong and a Flickr pool. The complete pattern comes from Last Minute Knitted Gifts, but i found the basic stitch on Nona Swatches, and i’ll figure it out from there. Actually i bought some ribbon yarn and started a test swatch, but frogged it because the yarn didn’t feel or hang nice for a scarf. I’ll have to go here to pick out some nice yarn with Hyewon…

Here are some of the colour combinations that have caught my eye:
