Probably not that high, but it feels like all I knit is red scarves. Well, that's pretty much all I do knit, with the exception of the white cardigan. I was looking at a crochet dress pattern but I don't seem to have appropriate yarn (unbelievable but true).
Here's another scarf, inspired by the thick and thin ribbed one from the last red scarf post.
It's a really basic ribbing, 1x1, but with a little twist!

It's a little hard to see, but it's one row of each of the two yarns. One row thick, slide back to the start. One row thin. Turn. One row thick, slide back, one row thin. Super easy!!
When I hung it up for the photos, it seemed to have a hole, but it's just where the thin yarn had been pulled tight across a few stitches.
The texture is really cool. When it's relaxed, it almost has a crocheted feel because the thin yarn retreats an the thick yarn doesn't have anything to hold the stitches tight and in their proper shape. Add some tension, and you can see the stitch definition better. This scarf took 89 grams.
