I knit some scarves for Christmas using a slanted garter stitch. You make it slant by increasing one stitch at the beginning and decreasing one at the end of the row. Do this on every other row. I used fun fur which doesn't show the stitches but this gives the ends a more interesting look.
I saw a scarf at the local thrift store that was done in all garter stitch in varigated yarn. The pattern had the slot where one end slips through the other end fitting close around the neck without so much knitting and still warm.
