and some and some info I found:

FREE PATTERN......MAGIC SCARF!

Wear this amazingly soft and stretchy cowl over your shoulders, around your
neck or over your head. After playing with it for just a little while you'll
find many exciting possibilities. Instructions: Cast on (very loosely) 68
stitches on size 11 24" circular needles. (You may want to cast on to
needles two sizes larger to make sure it is loose enough.) Knit in the round
to desired length. 2 balls will make a scarf approximately 35" long
unstretched (approx. 41" long stretched). 3 balls will make a scarf
approximately 53" long unstretched (approx. 62" long stretched). To retain
the horizontal stretchiness of the scarf, do not bind off. Instead, cut the
yarn leaving a 3 yard tail. Thread this tail on a tapestry needle and slide
the stitches off the knitting needle onto the tapestry needle, to be held by
the yarn tail. Once all the stitches are on the yarn tail, stretch the scarf
opening as far as it will go, and tie off the tail to the first stitch.
Rather unconventional, but it works!
