This lightweight and feminine scarf is knit side-to-side on a long circular needle, beginning with a botanically inspired lace pattern and finishing with a neckline-hugging series of alternating Stockinette and Reverse Stockinette Stitch welts. Bands of eyelets set in Garter Stitch separate the motifs and line the neck edge. It is worked in Fingering Weight Gems Merino, perfectly cozy and light for wearing either indoors or outside in brisk autumn weather.
