About the Design
Living in Sydney, Australia, means it’s warm 9 months of the year so I’m constantly playing around with designs that are light, breezy and cool enough to wear all year round.

Pipsqueak is a long, shallow, asymmetrical and reversable scarf that only requires one x 100g skein of sock weight yarn to make. Ladders of dropped stitches, framed by columns of ribbing create a lightweight fabric that is visually stunning and cool enough to wear throughout the Spring (and Summer, depending on where you live!).
