After a few people have contacted me through Ravelry, I have decided to post the pattern for the Lazy Links Scarf. This scarf came about after a day of rummaging through my LYS's bargain basket I found two lonely balls of Rowan Cocoon. After looking through all of my pattern books and trying to decide on the perfect balance between the "perfect pattern" and the "pattern that would allow for the longest possible scarf," I came up with this. I hope you like it!
