Named for the slenderest of waffles, this long and slim waffle-stitch scarf is easy in all the right ways.

The stitch pattern has a four-stitch, two-row repeat so it's quick to memorize, and any errors make themselves known almost immediately.

The ribs of the waffle knit lie remarkably nicely when worn, giving the scarf polish and panache.
