Finished scarf - purple and gold ruffle

Scarf, wool and nylon, knitting with double and single crochet. Size 9 metal cable needle, 24 in. and unsized crochet hook.

This is a wonderful soft ruffle of the school colors series. After casting on and knitting a couple rows I changed colors then knitted two stiches into each stitch to start the dramatic increases that a ruffle requires. Then I took up each knitted stitch onto the crochet hook and put a double crochet stitch into it, then put two double crochets into each double crochet into the next row.
