Notes: Throughout the pattern the first stitch in every RS AND WS row, sl1, the second stitch is always
a k stitch, these two stitches make the side borders is slipped as if to knit. In the WS rows all yo2 are
always p first loop and k second loop of yo2. All single yo are always p.
WS rows in the pattern are written for the StSt version as pictured.
You can alternatively make a Garter stitch version: p all stitches (except the second loop of the yo2) .
Making the scarf in garter stitch (k all but the first loop of yo2) will make it reversible!
