Multi-Bias Scarf
A scarf pattern created on the fly in under 2 minutes to show myself how easy it is to see the shape of a bias-knit project with the power of Stitch Maps. With a grid-based chart, you'd have to knit the whole project to understand the shaping. But thanks to Stitch Maps, what would take hours takes mere seconds.

Moving increases and decreases, making sections wider or shorter, and changing the bias angle are all incredibly easy to do -- and a fun way to understand how different stitches and stitch placement affect the shaping of a project.

Feel free to copy and modify, and make something truly unique that you'd enjoy knitting!
