You switch between knit1 and purl1 on the wrong side rows, and only knit on the right side rows. One of my german knitting books calls it 'sand pattern', and it appears like ribs on one side, and has a kind of bumpy appearance on the the other side. It is a very warm stitch and I could thnk it works fine for a scarf. Maybe you tell me where to see a picture of it and I can see if I am totally of track.
