The LariAaaht Scarf is a simple lariat-style scarf knit in luxurious cashmere. Made in one piece with a small seam to create a keyhole, this scarf is a snap to knit up! The classic texture of k2p2 ribbing and the sumptuous Jade Sapphire “Aaah” yarn combine to make an accessory that’s sure to make it to the short list of your favorites.

Construction Details
This scarf is knit in one piece, beginning with the k1p1 ribbed piece that will later be folded and seamed to create a keyhole. Starting here makes it easy to adjust the finished length of the scarf. After working the keyhole piece in k1p1 ribbing, stitches are increased and the remainder of the scarf is worked in k2p2 ribbing.
