Linda's Tam and Tube Scarf

There is nothing more fun to me than fair isle and multistranded knitting, and tams are quick and fun and can even be works of art.

The hat is knit in tru fair isle style, in DK worsted weight yarn and is mostly maroon, black, and white but I used a little blue on the front. The scarf is a knit tube using the same maroon, black, and white in aran worsted weight yarn.
