Northbound

Northbound will have you reaching into your yarn stash with new eyes.

The open lace may look intricate, but the pattern has a clear rhythm that's satisfying to knit. You work this rectangular scarf sideways, and the size is fully customisable from a skinny scarf to a large, lofty wrap.

The real danger is how well it works with any yarn. Linen or alpaca, rustic or silky, cobweb or bulky. Each yarn transforms Northbound into something entirely new. So don't be surprised if you find yourself planning a second version before the first one is even off the needles.

“I’m really enjoying your patterns. They look more difficult than they actually are, just the level of concentration I want to use since I’m always knitting and talking or watching a movie as I knit.”
