I've knitted this scarf so many times I can't remember, in various versions for friends. This is another gift for a friend. It's a really easy pattern, literally plain and purl, it's just remembering what row you are up to, and counting which stitch. I think it looks really effective, and it's a lovely warm scarf. I love this red wool, it's Patons Zhivago, which has a beautiful soft and silky feel to it. The pattern is right here if you're interested.
