Beginner knitters are always terrified at the thought of tackling a lace project. Really, if you have mastered the basics of knit, purl, yarn over and knitting 2 stitches together you are ready for a nice easy lace scarf.

I must warn you though, knitting lace can get addictive! Once you have completed your first piece, you will want to try more and more.

You will want to experiment with all different types of lace weight yarn as well as knitting lace with heavier weight yarn. I have just ordered some lovely silk/cashmere yarn in a creamy off white color on eBay and my fingers are just twitching waiting to get started as soon as it arrives. I plan on knitting this very pattern for my daughter for Christmas.

Knitting lace has become one of my passions lately. Although some lace patterns can be very complicated, this one is pretty easy and a great project for someone who is just starting out learning to knit lace.

The pattern has both written instructions and a chart which makes it very easy for someone to learn how to knit from charts because you have the written version to follow along with as well.

I am using a fine lace weight cotton for my scarf so I have added a few extra repeats of the pattern in mine, but you can make this scarf as narrow or as wide as you like and use whatever yarn you have on hand. Perfect as a stash busting project.

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS

Length after blocking: 70-74 inches

Width after blocking: approx. 6 inches

(Length and width before blocking: 48-52 inches x approx. 4 inches)

MATERIALS

300-400 yards of any soft fingering weight wool yarn

US #5/3.75mm or US #6/4.0mm straight or circular needles. (I recommend swatching with two or three

different needle sizes, then blocking your swatch to determine which needle size will produce the most

pleasing fabric with the yarn you are using. Swatching will also help you determine how many repeats of

the stitch pattern to do to get your desired scarf length.)

GAUGE

Gauge is not crucial and will vary depending on yarn used.
