Raukumara Scarf
In the thread waste bin at work 150gms of this really random yarn turned up. It was a Super Chunky yarn that just 'spoke' to me. As soon as I saw it, this scarf pattern just sort of organically happened. Named after the high country mountain range which is where I lived as a child. Now if some other cleaver clogs has thought of this first (& I am sure someone has) great minds...

K3 cast on 6 sts K3 (backwards loop or Cable CO works well here)
Knit three rows
Repeat ** to *** twice
Cast off.
This yarn isn't commercially available, but using two stands of DK together or better yet some of the funky super chunky's available from Skeinz, Have a look at the new range of Texas super chunky - two balls will complete the scarf. This would make a great Christmas gift.. - Enjoy!

Cute pattern. I just noticed it on Ravelry and thought it looked like fun. Thanks for sharing. I love the hole in the middle scarves. They make life easy.
