I have been having fun knitting Martina's relatively new pattern called Easy. It was designed in one skein of Zauberball which has a yardage of approximately 460 yards. However, I chose to knit this with 2 different skeins of Kilimanjaro 437. The first time I knit this, I used Ebony and Ansel. I love this combination because I wear so much black and it makes a bold and striking statement. Here's Jen modeling the scarves.
But the problem is that you can't see the change in direction that occurs when you are halfway through the scarf (that doesn't really bother me, but doesn't let others see what is happening with the pattern). For this reason I chose Bulletproof and Soul Food as two colors for another sample so that you can see the change in direction that occurs.
You can very easily knit this in one skein of yarn, but I just love the length that you get with 2 skeins!!
We put together some color combinations with the Kilimanjaro 437 so you could see them together.

I chose Masquerade and Ebony. Started with Masquerade until I has a cherry tomato size ball left. Did about 20 rows with Ebony and loving how the two look together.
It would be helpful if you showed what you have in stock. Each time I choose one, it is sold out. Ugh!
Is this still available so that I can get the pattern as well?
I choose Ebony and Gotta Love Me.
I chose Pewter with Feel Better and they look great together. I did not get a pattern for Easy. Is there a code or something I’m missing?
