Lace scarf for absolute beginners
(Video tutorial on the webpage https://pattern-duchess.com/how-to-knit-a-lace-scarf-for-beginners/)

The lace pattern has a pattern repeat of 10 stitches over 12 rows, and the wrong side rows are purl rows (except the edge stitches). We will do 3 repeats for the scarf.

To knit this lace scarf you will need:

  • 100 g of fingering or sport weight yarn (I use DROPS Alpaca)
  • 3 mm / US 2.5 knitting needles (I prefer needles made of wood)
  • (optional) 5 stitch markers – 2 in one color, 3 in another color

You can use any yarn you like. Just make sure you follow the recommended needle size on the yarn label.

Abbreviations used:
k – knit;
p – purl;

ssk – slip, slip, knit together;
