FD-27 Cirrus
WEB EXCLUSIVE

"Like Cirrus clouds," muses the designer, "this little scarf is soft, wispy, and lighter than air when knit with a fluffy lace weight yarn. The scarf is knit with a combination of cables and lace in one piece, from one end straight through to the other. The pattern nicely makes its own edge and end points, and won't curl even before blocking because of the combination of knit and purl stitches. Anyone already familiar with basic lace and cables will find this an easy pattern to knit up." And there is an unusual dimensionality to this scarf; in places the fabric looks nonexistent, and then (like watercolours layered on top of themselves) the colour builds up and becomes almost opaque where the filaments are gathered. Lace is both charted and written out.
