The Diagonal Lace Scarf and Wrap is lovely in a linen yarn as a wrap for cool evenings in sunny places. Or wrap it twice as a lavish scarf. Whichever way you go, it's the perfect accessory for the 'shoulder' season. You can also view all Churchmouse Classics Patterns.
I knit English style, so this scarf took forever to do. But the colorwork was so much fun that I didn't mind. Great project to work on while you're chatting with friends (like, at knitting group ;->). Will be making more of these for gifts.
This is an easy pattern -- the only part that was a little tedious was casting on 648 stitches. Just make sure to use the markers ever 50 stitches as recommended. A scarf that is a little different!
