The Vortex Scarf is a quick knit that calls for super bulky yarn. I have placed decrease stitches at each side and increase stitches in the center to create a chevron design that looks like an arrow. And because of the slanted design, one end of the scarf comes to a point and the other points inward. This pattern has two design elements: garter stitch and lace. I have also included links to my video tutorials for all the increase and decrease stitches.
