#341 Viona Scarf

A lovely vine lace stitch is reimagined when worked at an angle. The resulting angled rectangle works up beautifully into a scarf, shawl, and then some!\

Knit up the scarf version in a striking color of fingering-weight yarn. Or knit a mini scarf using leftover yarn as an accent for your tote or handbag, a small scarf, or a hair tie.

While this versatile pattern includes instructions for the mini scarf and scarf, you could easily use the lace for a wider scarf or shawl (or even a gorgeous table runner!) by casting on additional repeats. With the lace charted and written out, it's easy to do.

Choose a fingering-weight that is loosely plied and has a little loft to it, like the merino wool yarns shown here. The mini scarves make fabulous gifts and are quicker projects allowing you to use up those remnants of gorgeous kettle dyed yarn you may have left over from larger projects. The scarf uses less than one hank of the fingering-weight yarn, making it also a budget-friendly project.
