Mr. Laurence's brown basketweave scarf

In the play Little woman" Mr. Laurence is supposed to have a long brown wool scarf.  I started his scarf while waiting for another play to start that my youngest daughter was in this last week.   Below is the pattern I came up with while standing in line pretty simple really just 3 different rows is all.  Free pattern and supplies below.


supplies

• worsted weight brown wool
• size 8 knitting needles

cast on 26 stitches

repeat 1: k all stitches do this row 5 times before going to repeat 2


repeat 2: k9,p4,k4,p4, k5  do this row 5 times before going to repeat 3


repeat 3: k5,p4,k4,p4, k9  do this row 5 times before going to repeat 2

do repeats 2 and 3 till about 3/4 of an inch from desired length then do repeat 1 one more time.  cast off cut and finish thread.

I have not finished mine yet for the play I will add an updated picture of it when all completed.  Mine is 6 inches wide unblocked, length to be determined yet.  You of course can make yours what ever length you want.  Play calls for it to be long what ever that means.
