Yes, it IS a pattern intended for 2 skeins of Koigu KPPPM (total 350 yd.) which is fingering weight. However any multicoloured yarn would work well. The Saki yarn is Sport Weight and was fine. The resulting scarf is 31" long which is long enough to go around the neck and be overlapped and pinned. If one wanted a longer scarf, one could cast on more stitches and just follow the decreases and increases in the pattern. It was fairly mindless knitting - perfect for sitting and knitting.
Between my sister and myself, we figured out how to copy and paste charts from KnitVisualizer into a Word document. I am more familiar with WordPerfect but the pasting just wouldn't work with that program so Microsoft Word it is.
That ruffle scarf is adorable - I may have to make one for our young neighbor Kennedy. I think she would like one in pink.
