Product Description
This design welcomes spring in my neighbour “hood”, when Λ-shaped flocks of geese head north and budding trees awaken from their cold winter nap. Two simple lace motifs pick up the themes of trees and birds in flight; seed stitch stripes provide texture (and seeds attract the birds)!
The scarf is knitted back and forth in two sections, each from tip to centre, enabling the tree motif to stand upright when the scarf is worn. The neck edge is worked straight while the outer edge is gently curved with increases at regular intervals. Each section may be worked in the same or two colours, or with an optional 2-tone gradient pattern. An i-cord edging adds a final touch. Instructions + charts incl.
Knitting Gauge (blocked): 20 sts and 8 rows to 10 cm/4 in in stocking stitch on 4.5 (US 7) needles (fingering wgt yarn held together with strand of lace-wgt mohair).
Techniques Used: Basic lace stitches; Kitchener grafting; longtail CO (for i-cord); I-cord BO.
Level: Beginner (lace)
