Zig Zag Knitted Scarf

I knitted a scarf to donate using a zig zag pattern that I found here.

I used a Caron Anniversary Cake Special Edition (the colour is Gingerbread Forest) and 6.5mm needles.

I cast on 24 stitches (a multiple of 6 plus 6 for the edges).

Knit 3 rows. I followed this pattern, knitting 3 stitches at the beginning and the end of each row for an outside border.

• Row 1 (RS): K3, *P2, K4; rep from * to last 3 sts, P2, K1. 
• Row 2 (WS): P2, *K2, P4; rep from * to last 4 sts K2, P2. 
• Row 3: K1, *P2, K4; rep from * to last 5 sts, P2, K3. 
• Row 4: *P4, K2; rep from * to end. 
• Row 5: K1, *P2, K4; rep from * to last 5 sts, P2, K3. 
• Row 6: P2, *K2, P4; rep from * to last 4 sts K2, P2. 
• Row 7: K3, *P2, K4; rep from * to last 3 sts, P2, K1. 
• Row 8: *K2, P4; rep from * to end. 
• Rep Rows 1 - 8. 

Knit 3 rows and bind off.
