materials
finished sizeApprox. 8in/20cm wide by 60in/150cm long without
fringe
yarn4 skeins Rowan Cashsoft DK (50% extra-fine merino wool,
40% microfiber, 10% cashmere; 142yds/130m per 1.75oz/50g
ball), shown in color #521
Note: This pattern uses a stockinette-based stitch and thus has
a
strong tendency to curl. If using Rowan Cashsoft DK, you may
wish to iron the finished scarf to reduce this tendency.
If substituting yarn, its recommended to choose a yarn that
is
mostly natural fiber. In addition, the zigzag/striping effect
will
show up best in a yarn with good stitch definition and a bit
of
sheen.
gaugeApprox. 24.5 sts/34 rows = 4in/10cm across herringbone
stitch w/moss stitch border pattern
Note: Exact gauge for this project is not important. However, be
sure
to wash and block your swatch before checking gauge.
needles1 set US 6/4mm needles, or size needed to obtain
gauge
