Mirka Scarf is a small, satisfying knit. A slip-stitch edge and reversible stitch pattern create a clean finish and a fabric that lies flat, making it an ideal in-between project with scope for customisation. The texture was inspired by the small blossoms of a plum tree in my garden as spring arrives.
