This is a soft, squishy scarf in a subtle lace pattern, knitted in fingering weight yarn, in a heathered brown-red colorway and also a multi-colorway in orange, burnt umber, and brown.

However, the color possibilities are endless! This is a great way to use one skein of a lovely hand-painted sock yarn, and when paired with a complimentary solid color yarn, it results in a thicker, longer scarf than you would be able to make with only one skein of yarn.

The scarf is knit flat and then seamed up the side to create an open-ended tube, which makes it extremely warm despite the airiness of the lace pattern.

The lace pattern is not as open as normal lace patterns. It forms little waves running up the length of the scarf with tiny eyelets in between.

This scarf was used by the heroine Kate in Shoshanna Gabriel’s novella, Countdown to Her Cowboy’s Christmas Wedding, which releases along with my novella in a romance anthology, Save the Date. I created the pattern for her in celebration of the release of our anthology.
