This elongated boomerang scarf has simple eyelet edges - inspired by fond childhood memories of broderie anglaise party dresses - and can be worn in lots of ways. It also looks clever and elegant, but is extremely easy to make.

Like all minimal knits | DESIGNED boomerang shaped scarves – knitted on the bias with curved edges - MK#17 drapes beautifully and is quick to knit because it uses needles larger than is usual for the yarn.

The sample scarf was made from a 100g skein of Bombed Yarns Sock 4ply (80% Australian Merino and 20% Nylon) in the colour Orange and Lemon Ice Pole. It contained 375 metres / 410 yards and the completed scarf measures 66 cm / 26½ inches, by 158 cm / 62 inches, by 214 cm / 85 inches after blocking.
