Wouldn’t it be awesome if you could have one pattern to make everyone on your gift list happy whether a tween, a collegiate, or even your fashionista NYC aunt? That’s the inspiration for this pattern—a scarf for practically everyone. When knit in super bulky yarn, it’s at home on a windy college campus, and when knit in a luxurious cashmere blend (such as Capra DK), it’s fit for Audrey Hepburn.

About the Designer

She now calls the East Coast her home, working as a personal trainer and nutrition coach during the day and dreaming of snowy mountains at night. She knits and designs to balance her active life with quiet time, because knitting makes her slow down and sit for a change. Find her on Ravelry as OwlCatDesigns.
