Pattern Description:

A short little neck scarf that takes just one ball of fine mohair (I used RichMore "Excellent Mohair Count 5") and is quick to make.
A similar yarn could be used instead for the same effect.
One ball of count 5 mohair makes a scarf 24 cm x 110 cm, but you can make this wider and longer if you want a wrap instead of a scarf.

The pattern also looks great in a variety of other yarns and needle sizes - see pic for a few other ideas.  
It's reversible, very open and lacy, and makes a lovely scarf that would make a great gift!

The stitch pattern is easily learnt being only a 6 row repeat.  

Gauge:

12 sts, 12 rows to 10 cm in Matrix Stitch pattern on 10 mm (US 15) needles, using RichMore Count 5 mohair.
