Lilac eskimo yarn (in rib) on the ends, black merino in the middle (in [[Double Knitting Technique|double knitting]]). Of the photos to the right, the top one shows the truest colour of the eskimo yarn. The bottom one is included to show what the yarn looks like wound into a ball.

I wanted the scarf to look the same on both sides, so I needed reversible stitch patterns. Double knitting was the obvious choice for the merino. I tried the eskimo in double knitting as well, but it got too thick and stiff, and half of the threads were inside so couldn't be seen. Rib works fine. You can't see the actual stitch pattern with this stuff, just the variation in fluffiness. I'm using the eskimo doubled.
I'm doing this in [[Double Knitting Technique]].

I'm not doing the entire scarf in eskimo because although it looks nice I think it would be uncomfortable on the back of the neck.
