PATTERN: STRIPES SCARF Alternate 9" block of 'v' st and block st.

Sue's version of V' st
I like to do my own version, the ch st, between the dc isn't necessary and you get a firmer fabric, that gives a lovely soft but very square and neat edged fabric.

BASE CHAIN: Multiples of 3sts plus 1 start and finish with a dc in first and last st.
