ABOUT:

Kikimora is a house spirit from Slavic folklore. She was known to spend her evenings spinning thread and knitting intricate lace. The sound of her spinning wheel was believed to be a bad omen. This scarf, with its engaging lace pattern, will unleash a demonic knitting frenzy in anyone. It also works great as a travel project, that will forever hold the memories of the trip in each yarn-over.

MATERIALS:

3 mm circular needles
60 cm cable

170 m of fingering ( 230-250 / 50 g )
silk, cotton or bamboo yarn

GAUGE:

28 stitches x 30 rows = 10 x 10 cm in the lace pattern on 3 mm needles

I would suggest keeping a loose tension.
The more drape the fabric has the better.
