I haven't tried it yet, but this would probably look good in a lightweight mohair on large needles, making an airy shawl instead of a warm, fuzzy scarf. Materials ~150-200 yds bulky textured yarn, such as boucle, fur, or looped mohair Size US 9 needles

Gauge I got 4st/1" with my yarn (I think it might be Lion Brand Illusions, but I got it unlabeled at a thrift store) Finished Measurements 6" wide x as long as the yarn lasts *Pattern* Cast on 24 stitches. Knit 5 rows, then begin drop loop pattern. When the length desired is nearly reached (or the yarn is nearly gone), finish 6-row repeat, then knit 5 rows and bind off loosely. Weave in ends, and block scarf lightly if needed or desired. Rows 1, 2, 4, and 5: Knit (dropping second loop of double wrap when following drop loop row). Rows 3 and 6: Knit, wrapping yarn around needle twice before pulling stitch through. Variation: If you want a slightly less lacy scarf, then add two more rows of garter stitch in between each row of drop loops (6-row repeat becomes 10-row repeat).
