Edgar has been published in Knitty's fall 2005 issue.

In Germany, fall is grey, wet and cold. Nothing else. Just the right time for some extra color and coziness from a scarf.
I love self striping yarns. I really do. Many colors in just one ball mean endless possibilities for adventurous knitters.
Edgar the edgy scarf is my latest approach to the possibilities of one or two balls of self striping yarns, showing off all their beauty and brightness.
One ball of Noro Silk Garden or Noro Kureyon knits up to a cravat, 43 inches long. If you'd like an extra-long Edgar, 2 balls will end him at 85 inches. If you want him medium (60 inches), one and a half balls will do.
If you decide to knit a cravat, no two squares will be alike. The ultimate one-of-a-kind project.
The pattern in German can be found
here; die deutsche Anleitung gibt es

For a while now I have been in love with
mosaic patterns.
If you combine a solid colour yarn with a self striping yarn
the effect is tremendous. My intention was to create a mosaic
or slip stitch pattern that is suitable for a scarf – giving
you a scarf which looks alike on both sides, using only one
colour per row and displaying the brightness of the yarns.
The mosaic pattern this scarf uses is easy to knit –
just give it a try.
Matilda has been published in Magknits January 2006 issue.
Due to the closing down of Magknits.com the
Matilda pattern can now be downloaded here.
