No, you don’t need fancy color schemes and complicated yarn changes for this one! This is a gorgeous texture that makes for a luxurious and dense fabric. It would be great for a cozy, warm scarf or a poncho, too! The possibilities are endless. And yes, indeed, you could make a wonderful “scrapghan” using up your odds and ends from yarn supply. This is the kind of stitch that lends itself to all kinds of creativity.
