Michele’s Eternity Scarf has been a Ravelry sensation since its original release in the Fall of 2009. When we realized that several were being knit by our own own staff last spring, we decided it would be fun to put together a Special Edition of the pattern. The original scarf is now joined by a shorter neckwarmer variation as well as a larger loop that is deeper and longer, creating a slightly more dramatic look. Worked up in Shelter, the cowl creates a softly haloed fabric, while working with Loft doubled creates a fabric with a more sculptural stitch definition. Be warned, the pattern is addicting in its simple elegance – you may find yourself making multiple!
