Inspired by the elegance of vintage crochet, the Gentle Lilt Scarf brings the best out of yarn with long flowing ombre colour changes.

Working on the bias, this delicate yet effortless design lets the beauty of a long-fade yarn shine, with soft, gradual colour shifts that flow seamlessly across the fabric.

The Gentle Lilt Scarf is created with just 100g of 4ply/fingering weight yarn, making it a perfect project for showcasing those special skeins.

Perfect to take along to knit night or a fab travelling project - you just keep going until all your yarn is used.

Notes

Yarns with long colour changes are recommended. Self striping sock yarn may result in blocky colour pooling across the rows and will minimise the bias effect.
