It’s named by the lovely Lolita Blahnik of LPK – named after the very tasty little Canarian fish with large eyes…
To make a scarf you will need
2-3 balls of very soft wool
Knitting needles of a size that makes your knitting soft and loose
Cast on 36 stitches and work 4 rows in K2, P2 ribbing
Work the following pattern:
Row 1: K2, P2, *K1, YO, K1, P2*
Row 2: K2 *P3, K2*, P2
Row 3: K2, P2, *sl1, K2, psso, P2*
repeat these 3 rows until you’re almost out of yarn
Work 4 rows of K2, P2 ribbing
Cast off loosely
Wear & keep warm!

For the Ojo de Gallo scarf, in the first row of the pattern, shouldn’t there be a K2tog to make up for the YO? Otherwise aren’t you adding 3 stitches across that row? What am I missing?
Hello Judi
In row 1 you add stitches
In row 2 you knit the extra stitches
In row 3 you decrease the extra stitches when you pass the slipped stitch over two knitted stitches.
Hope this helps!
Of course – thanks so much. I just overthought that one.
Hi, I’ve been trying to knit this scarf, and it seems that I am ending up with less stitches as I go. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Any ideas? According to the pattern it does seem that in row 1 I am increasing 1 stitch in the repeat, but in row 3, I am decreasing 2 stitches in the repeat.
Thanks!
Hi Arlow
in row 1 you increase 1 stitch
in row 3 you decrease 1 stitch
– slip 1 stitch, knit 2 stitches, pass the slipped stitch over the 2 knitted stitches
Hope this helps!
