Scarf using eyelash yarn in combo

Another combination that is nice is most any yarn carried with an eyelash yarn. Choose any two yarns that you like the combined look of. You can choose to be complementary or to contrast.

I knit a couple of rows to make sure I'm happy with it, before I knit any further. Occasionally, I don't like what I chose, so I take those rows apart and combine the yarns with other yarns.

Pick one of the patterns that I gave earlier, or knit 16 or 18 stitches, depending on the length of yarn you have and the width you want your scarf to be.

Your only limitation is the number of yards in your shorter skein, if you are striving to stay to one skein. If you find the yarns you chose are very bulky, you might need to use fewer stitches and a bigger needle. Experiment!

Here's a closeup of a navy eyelash with a varigated blue yarn.

And here's how it looks completed.
