Monarch Scarf features an unusual three-part yarn: a little glitz, a bit of ribbon, and wool, each in different shades. Monarch, from the Rozetti Yarns collection at Universal Yarn, is a self-ruffling yarn with a ladder construction along one edge. This scarf is easy to knit and can be completed in mere hours. Monarch is available in four shades, and one 33-yard ball is enough to create this scarf.
