Knit your own Moebius ZigZag using these clearly-written instructions by knitwear designer Jackie E-S of HeartStrings FiberArts.
Moebius ZigZag features a dramatic shaped edge and reversible diagonal lace stitch, making the single-sided moebius wonder even more wonderful.
The Moebius ZigZag Scarf is a continuous one-sided surface that is formed from a rectangular piece of knitting! In effect, there is no inside or outside to this scarf. It is simply a loop with a half twist that will rest comfortably folded about your head or neck. The knitting goes quickly and makes a great gift, too. Wear it as a head covering, or a scarf, or even a shoulder wrap.

Tip: For a variation, you can easily make a regular reversible scarf by omitting the step to join the start and finish of your knitting. Just use your favorite method of casting on and casting off.
