This is a very pretty pattern that can be styled different ways. It is surprising how it comes out in appearance like a basket weave just using typical stitches in an interesting combination. There are written instructions now as well as a chart and it all seem fairly clear to follow. Pinned!

This is indeed a clever pattern and as the person ahead of me said, can be worn in so many ways. While ever so many cowls are interesting and fun to knit, this one is exceptional in that it uses basic stitches to achieve a surprising effect. Again thank you.

I didn't have any issues accessing or printing the pattern when I tried it today. Perhaps the reported issues have been resolved. That said, this is a simple yet clever pattern that really does look like a woven basket. Its a simple use of knit and purl stitches. One of the pluses of the scarf is that it can be worn in so many flattering ways, from a hood to a cowl to a short caplet. Thanks for sharing the pattern.

I had to go to a different site to get the pattern, what a joke this site is!! Don't even bother wasting your time to try to download or look for the pattern on here. Go to paperblog to get it.

Yes Susie I. Phx, I too noticed the problems. I'm just going to try a framing border like she's done then follow another basket weave pattern with easy to follow instructions.

Instructions say multiple of 8+10. however the chart shows multiple 8+12. Neither specify how many to cast on. AllFreeKnitting.com states 5-B yarn (yardage unknown), the other sites ignore yarn weight. It's beautiful, but why bother wasting time with these contradicting & confusing instructions. I too found written instructions at: http://en.paperblog.com/basketweave-knitted-infinity-scarf-396602/

You insult our creative ability to follow a chart that is unreadable. This would be beautiful if everyone could read so small a graph, but in reality, not everyone can do so. If you want to post the pattern, please do so in a manner that everyone can see and follow. Thank you for adhering to my request.

I would prefer to have the pattern for this article. Downloading another software program for this is not going to happen.

Would love to knit this, but refuse to read a chart that is so small, and refuse even more to download software to do it. Please put the written instructions back up!

I agree with all said above. I knit from a pattern, not a chart. And the chart that is pictured is too small to be of any use anyway. There is no pattern given even though many of the comments on that page talk as if there is one-and it's written wrong! I love the finished product, but getting there might be impossible...
