A One Skein Triangle Scarf

One of the things I love the most about this Lion Brand Mandala colorway is that I would NEVER think to put these colors together myself but I absolutely love them.  I had to try a mod scarf pattern with Lion Brand Mandala yarn because...well...they are still one of my personal favorites (so I hope you are still loving them too!).  Triangle scarves and shawls have still been very popular lately, and my mod scarf patterns definitely fit that trend.  What I especially like about them though is that they aren't so bulky around the neck like a traditional triangle shawl would be.

This scarf includes the beautiful star stitch (like my Snow Drops Mod Scarf) and it also incorporates some other stitches for added interest and tons of texture!  All of the special stitch descriptions are included below, and once you get the repeat down, it's a piece of cake to finish.  AND it's just a one cake project so if you picked up a random cake on impulse (we've all been there!) this is a perfect project for you.
