Ready for an approachable, yet satisfying, knit? This scarf with a simple ribbed pattern might just be your next project!

Beach Stripes Scarf is heartily influenced by striped beach baskets and umbrellas that I fell in love with on the Northern Coast of Germany when I lived there. I developed this striking stripe pattern as a reminder of the fond times I visited the beaches near Kiel, Hamburg, Sylt, and Sankt Peter-Ording.
