Cresta Scarf
Special introductory price until the end of October
The Cresta Scarf is a lightweight, one-skein project that is perfect for showcasing those special skeins waiting in your stash. Named after the Spanish word for “ridge” or “mountain,” this design features a gently textured lace stitch that forms soft ridges throughout the fabric.
Worked with simple increases and decreases on one side, the scarf curves gracefully as it grows, creating a versatile and flattering shape. A neat I-cord edging finishes things off beautifully.
Relaxing to knit and easy to memorise, The Cresta Scarf is an intuitive pattern suited to adventurous beginners and beyond — ideal for a calming project with satisfying results.
The pattern can be easily adapted to suit the yardage of your skein of yarn.
UPDATE - Instructions for a DK version of the scarf have now been added to the pattern.
The DK scarf is made using 1 skein of DK yarn and 4.5mm needles.
