Lumin Scales
The pattern of Lumin Scales resembles shimmering scales, which is how it got its name. The design is created by holding different colored yarns in the left and right hands, similar to stranded colorwork, resulting in a fabric that has its own unique charm on both the right and wrong sides. That’s why this pattern was developed into a scarf—it can be worn on either side. Lumin Scales can be knitted using many different types of yarn, which makes for a highly creative and versatile scarf design.
The scarf is knitted starting from the longest edge (the base), then decreases are worked along both sides to shape the triangle. You can also calculate the desired size of the scarf using a simple formula.
