Danubio Scarf

What Is Being Made

The Danubio Scarf is a long, generously proportioned scarf measuring 17 x 170 cm, not including the decorative trims at the short ends. Its elongated silhouette and open, loopy texture make it a striking accessory suitable for layering over outerwear. A 90 cm green satin ribbon (1.5 cm wide) is incorporated as a finishing detail, adding a refined contrast to the chunky yarn texture.

Techniques Used

• Long knit stitch (extended loop stitch): The primary technique used throughout the body of the scarf. This method involves winding the yarn twice around the right knitting needle for every stitch on one row, then dropping the extra wraps on the following row to create elongated, loopy stitches. The result is an open, tactile fabric with a distinctive drape and visual depth.
• Garter stitch: Used selectively along the inner side edge of the scarf during a specific shaping section, providing a firmer, more structured edge to contrast with the open long stitch fabric.
• Crochet finishing: The short ends of the scarf are trimmed using crochet techniques, adding a decorative and neat border to complete the piece.

Stitches Used

• Long knit stitch – worked across all stitches for the main body, creating the scarf's signature loopy texture
• Garter stitch – worked normally on one edge stitch during the shaped inner section
• Chain stitch – used in the crochet trim at the short ends
• Double crochet – used in the crochet trim at the short ends
• Treble crochet – used in the crochet trim at the short ends

Construction Notes

The scarf is cast on with 11 stitches and worked entirely in long stitch until the piece reaches 30 cm, at which point shaping begins along the inner side. During this shaped section, one garter stitch is maintained at the right edge while the remaining 10 stitches continue in long stitch. At 102 cm (measured along the inside), all stitches revert to long stitch across the full width. Work continues until the piece measures 132 cm along the inside, at which point all stitches are bound off. The short ends are then finished with the crochet hook using chain stitch, double crochet, and treble crochet to create a decorative border trim.

Gauge

The stated gauge is 6 stitches and 10 rows to 10 x 10 cm worked in long stitch on size 10 knitting needles. Achieving the correct gauge is important for matching the finished dimensions of 17 x 170 cm.
