A hidden button allows you to wear this versatile scarflet snug or open, under a coat, or over a top for a little extra glamour (and, incidentally, warmth!) It’s a quick knit and a perfect gift for women of all ages.

March 24/2010 Note: Knitterly Things has a fresh new selection of fabulous colours in this yarn!

Yarn substitution: Vesper Merino Mohair is spun, for lack of a better description, snugly enough that you have to make an effort to separate the strands. It looks round and balanced in your hand. A Candy Wrapper made with it lies flat when you block it; Wrappers made with more loosely spun yarn are more likely to curl at both the cast-on and cast-off edges.
