Teagues Scarf

This pattern is inspired by Janine Teagues from Abbott Elementary- classic with just a little flair!

It uses one full skein of chunky yarn and is relatively quick to make! It uses a simple repetitive k2tog motif to create repeating diagonal stripes.

I am also selling scarves made in this pattern. You may sell scarves made in this pattern but please tag K &S Knits if you do so.
