Citrus Tonic

Nice, fresh, home-made lemonade, does that remind you of summer? For me, it certainly does. With lemon as a starting point, I enjoy mixing other citrus fruits for more flavors and more variations.

This stylish, lacy scarf is the perfect summer project! The Citrus Tonic scarf combines several lace patterns that flow into each other. It knits fast with the yarn held double, starting from the center with a provisional cast-on that you really need in your knitter’s arsenal! ;-) The silk yarn will keep you cool and protect you from the summer breeze if necessary. The scarf has a generous length; you can wrap it twice around your neck comfortably or wear it folded in two. You can also work the scarf as a stole. In that case, I’d suggest working a length of around 180 cm / 71 inches.
