Begin Chevron Pattern St.
Work with first color for 10 rows, change to 2nd color and work 10 rows, continue through all 6 colors and then repeat sequence.Since I haven't finished the scarf yet, I can't tell how long it will be, but I think there will be 4 repeats of the chevron stripes which will make a nice, long scarf.
At end of scarf K2 rows in final color and bind off loosely.
Note: I changed colors at edge by knitting first two sts with old and new color together.
