It is "Nimbus" made from Berroco Peruvia Quick on #11s and there are free patterns available for it with purchase. It could also be made from Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Bulky or Cascade 128 or even a bulky Noro or other chunky yarn.
I am working on an idea - A secret scarf club - 11 scarves in 2011. This will start in February and will meet once a month for the rest of the year. Each month will be a new scarf and pattern designed to build your knitting skills. So it is perfect for beginning knitters and not a bad thing either for intermediate knitters. No one but those who are in scarf club will get the pattern. It will not be for sale otherwise. There will be a few color choices each month in the yarn but I pick the yarn and write the pattern. At the end of the year you will have a box of scarves to give for gifts or to wear yourself and your knitting skills will have grown. The price will include yarn, pattern and a one hour class to help you get started on the techniques used in the scarf. You can come to the class or just pick up the kit if you feel able to do it alone. You can buy in to as many months as you like. The first class is Tuesday Feb 15th at 5pm and I do need to know who plans to participate so there is advance registration. Let me know what you think.
