Beverley Scarf in Rowan Kidsilk Haze – Pattern Summary

About This Pattern

The Beverley Scarf is a free, downloadable PDF knitting pattern designed by Chloe Thurlow and published by Rowan. It is rated as an intermediate skill level project, making it a rewarding challenge for knitters who are comfortable with basic techniques and ready to explore working in the round. The finished piece is a long, elegant scarf constructed as a knitted tube, giving it a beautifully neat, reversible appearance with no visible wrong side.

What Is Being Made

The pattern produces a single elongated tube scarf measuring 152 cm in finished length. The tubular construction is achieved by knitting continuously in rounds rather than flat rows, which creates a seamless, polished fabric. The scarf is worked in multiple colour sections, making it a striking striped accessory with a luxurious, lightweight drape.

Techniques Used

• Knitting in the round using a set of four double-pointed needles, with stitches distributed evenly across three needles and the fourth used as the working needle
• Tubular knitting, which creates a hollow, seamless scarf with a clean finish on all sides
• Colour striping by breaking yarn at set intervals and joining new colours at specific length measurements
• Stitch marker placement to denote the beginning and end of each round, an essential technique when working in the round
• Careful cast-on management to avoid twisting the cast-on edge before joining to work in rounds

Stitches Used

• Garter stitch (g st) – worked for the first 4 rounds to create a neat, textured beginning to the scarf
• Stocking stitch (st st) – used for the main body of the scarf across all colour sections, producing a smooth, even fabric throughout the tube

Colour Sections and Structure

The scarf is worked in six yarn colours, labelled A through F, with each of the first four colours (A, B, C, and D) used across specific length sections. The pattern offers four distinct colourways, each using a different palette of shades from the Rowan Kidsilk Haze range. The colourways include:

• 1st Colourway: Blackcurrant 641, Lustre 686 (used as Yarn B), Peacock 671, Verdant 725, Candy Girl 606, Laguna 685
• 2nd Colourway: Turquoise 723, Cream 634, Aura 676, White 612, Twig 730, Pearl 590
• 3rd Colourway: Lustre 686, Eve Green 684, Jelly 597, Lavender 697, Peach 726, Fuchsia 714
• 4th Colourway: A further selection of Rowan Kidsilk Haze shades as listed in the pattern

Each colour section is worked until the piece reaches a specific cumulative length: 38 cm, 76 cm, 114 cm, and 152 cm, creating evenly proportioned colour blocks along the full length of the scarf.

Materials

• Yarn: Rowan Kidsilk Haze, a lace weight yarn available in 25 g balls, used in multiple colours as described above. Kidsilk Haze is a famously delicate and lustrous yarn, blending kid mohair and silk for an airy, halo-effect fabric with exceptional softness and sheen.
• Needles: A set of four 5 mm (UK No. 6 / US 8) double-pointed needles, or a circular needle of equivalent size. Note that the needle size is larger than typically recommended for a lace weight yarn, which is intentional — working Kidsilk Haze on larger needles creates an open, fluid, lightweight fabric ideal for a scarf.
