Colorways 1 - LoopScarf

An easy knitting pattern for a beautiful loop scarf by Birgit Freyer.

With this pattern, you can knit a beautiful loop scarf. This pattern has first been published in Birgit's collection Colorways 1, promoting the beautiful yarn Filace Moira with the wonderful colour changes, but Moira can be easily substituted with a variegated yarn of similar weight.

The loop scarf is worked in the round in a zig-zag pattern and is truly eyecatching, but rather easy to knit. The pattern contains charts.

This pattern contains detailed instructions about the construction and shaping, as well as charts for the main pattern and the ridges. The distribution of the ridges is up to your choice. On the last page of the pattern, you will find detailed examples.
