No right side

One side or the other, it doesn't matter.  Think reversible.

I went back and reviewed Whit's requirements for a scarf, from the Purl Bee Rick Rack Scarf.    In the designer's words we read:  

After all, the criteria for a scarf pattern are rather stringent: something that lies flat, that looks good on both sides and that has a soft and beautiful drape.

Working on the cream shawl, an easy and satisfying pattern, gave me a chance to really think about the design.  Hint:  It's a 3 row pattern.  Conclusion:  It's reversible, as in no right side (and no wrong side, for that matter.)

While this revelation may not be astonishing -- or even interesting -- to some readers, this very idea launched me onto a whole new knitting space.  I've decided to do a couple of things to see if the exploration of this new space is both fun and rewarding.

Here's the white shawl -- no right side.

Folded the long shawl over onto itself so you could see the
'other' side.

Now, this pattern is both easy and satisfying (and didn't I already say that?)  The pattern itself is 28 stitches, and repeats itself just two times across the shawl.  It's got no right side, so how would that work in a scarf?

I took the leftovers from the Bernat Mosaic Cowl and cast on 28 stitches on a US 10 1/2 needle.  Here's what I've got so far.

On top of the cream shawl, the scarf pattern shows up clearly
and I already know it has no right side.

The Purl Bee Rick Rack scarf has no right side.  I've used a pattern from 101 One Skein Wonders that also has no right side.  And the Universal Scarf from Interweave has no right side.

So I am on a search for patterns that create no right side, maybe have 3 or 5 rows, or maybe a 4 row pattern  that will work if I eliminate the last row.  This is called a knitting adventure.  Please note that I do not need special shoes or boots, no special climbing gear, nothing to protect me from the elements.  And please also note that the sun is shining today so I will perhaps sit IN the elements on my back deck and search for other knitting discoveries that have no right side.
