Hi and welcome to Knitting Help.
It's a combination of wandering or snake cables. Instead of crossing the cable knit stitches, you move the 2 knit stitches over the background knit stitches. There's purl stitches between half the cables. I couldn't find the exact pattern but these patterns show you the idea of the wandering cable. You could set up several next to each other for the scarf.

Were you thinking of stripes for your pink and blue scarf or something else? Any particular weight yarn?

thanks there!about d pink n blue yarns,actually i hvent buy them..bt since im going 2 make winter scarf 4 my fren(girl),so mybe ill buy bulky merino/alpaca..her favourite color r those two..like in d picture, there r 2 colors rite(pink n purple)..so its there any scarf pattern tat use 2 striking colors?if only stripe,do u think its too simple?or is it better if i only use one color since there r not similar color?

Here's a video for the basic cable. In this video, the cable is twisted over a background of purl stitches and your picture shows a scarf where the cable wanders over a knit background but the idea of the cable twist is the same.

And here are some scarf patterns that could be used in a single color or in stripes with two or more colors:
