Using 2 Balls of Caron Chunky Cakes, you can make this Deep Ridge Scarf. A great substitute is Caron Anniversary Cakes.
The scarf is a Mikey original that combines sets of front posts and back posts to create deep ridging.

Tutorial
The tutorial is slightly different at the beginning of the rows. I feel the updated PDF is a better way to do it.

Does the turning chain count towards the 21? I feel like I can get it to work out perfectly...if I ignore the turning chain. But in row three I end up with the three final back post double crochets instead of only two...and then I still have the turning chain to go. It's like I've added a stitch somewhere. Any thoughts?
