Eden Fells Scarf by Helen Stewart
What Is Being Made
The Eden Fells Scarf is a classic textured scarf designed by Helen Stewart that combines knit and purl stitches to create an attractive, reversible design. This unisex scarf features a tailored look suitable for a wide range of wearers. The finished scarf measures 137cm (54") long and 20cm (8") wide, making it a versatile accessory piece.
Knitting Techniques and Stitch Work
This intermediate-level knitting project uses a straightforward combination of knit and purl stitches to build visual interest and texture throughout the piece. The stitch pattern repeats over just 4 rows, making it easy to memorize once you establish the initial sequence. Despite the simplicity of the pattern repeat, the variation created by alternating knit and purl stitches provides enough complexity to keep the knitting engaging.
One of the standout features of the Eden Fells Scarf is that both sides of the scarf look equally attractive, making it a truly reversible accessory. This two-sided appeal is achieved through the balanced use of knit and purl stitches, which create visual interest from either direction the scarf is viewed.
Materials and Gauge
This pattern calls for 1½ x 113g skeins of Jill Draper Makes Stuff Hudson yarn in the Mourning Dove colorway. The yarn is 100% Superwash Merino with 219 meters (240 yards) per 113-gram skein, providing a durable and washable fiber suitable for everyday wear.
The recommended gauge is 20 stitches and 28 rows over 10cm (4") in pattern after blocking. The pattern notes that exact gauge is not crucial for this project; however, adjusting the gauge may result in changes to the finished scarf size and yarn requirements.
