Notes

This is another bi-stitchual project, with hood being my design and the scarves will be based on Jane Thronley’s tapestry scarf/wrap form Issue 6 of the Inspired Knitters Club.
The Jane Thornley wrap pattern is now available on Ravelry.

  • The hood is just an oversized bucket hat with the crown in a 4 color spiral, then I used linked trebels, then some knitting and some more linked trebels.
  • Within each round are 4 colors, one blending into another, and laying on top of each other, similar to how the spiral works. If you know how to do diagonal knitting, you can create the same effect, as long as you change and layer the colors. Usually I just attach the yarn at one side and work the scarves that way, but this time I did them separately per the Tapestry wrap pattern and then did some slip stitching to attach them.
