Fishbone Scarf is a triangular mini scarf featuring lace and garter stitch that is designed to create angled geometric lines. It could also be worn as a bandanna. The scarf is worked from top down with a start at the center. The triangle is shaped with increase. It can be knitted in luxurious cashmere for a soft, cozy accessory on a chilly early-spring day. Or, taking less than 50 grams of yarn, it could easily be a stash buster for your leftover yarn. This pattern is beginner-friendly and a great introduction to lace knitting for knitters who want to venture into lace.
