I wanted a quick, simple scarf with lots of texture that I could knit when I wanted to procrastinate. I was inspired to design this scarf after noticing (and participating) in the color blocking fashion trend this past summer. I wondered how I could extend my color blocking fun into winter accessories. Worked in bulky or superbulky yarn with just the basic knit and purl stitches, this scarf or cowl will be a quick project for anyone looking for a simple but impressive quick gift. The pattern is also easily worked in one color yarn for an even simpler, textured scarf. And the name? “Textured Block Play” seemed too long, so I went with BlockTure. Hehehe…

This scarf and cowl make great last-minute Christmas gifts for both the men and women in your life (and it’s perfect for couple scarves). It knits up very quickly with superbulky yarn for a great Christmas present. Customize and personalize it with your own color combination.
Happy Knitting!
