The Anthophila Scarf was designed with bees in mind; it’s knit in three different panels (two each of the outer panels, and one long center panel) using slipped stitches that are reminiscent of honeycomb and beehives. Because it’s knit in smaller yarn than typical for winter scarves, the stitches are small and tight, making it quite cozy.

I used about 4.5 skeins of yarn for this project, but I would buy 6 just to be sure, or if you’d like your scarf a little longer. You can make each panel as long or as short as you want by increasing or decreasing a repeat; whatever you do, I’d suggest making it symmetrical on each side.
