Your new favourite summer knit!
Say hello to your new favourite summer knit!
The Open Skies scarf is an ode to nature’s simplicity.
Open Skies is a lightweight rectangular scarf with bias construction and tapered ends.
You work it in garter stitch and simple lace, playing with vertical and diagonal eyelet bands.
This easy-to-wear scarf feels light against the skin and pairs well with any outfit, providing warmth without the bulk.
A sleek little thing that doesn’t weigh you down but adds a touch of je ne sais quoi.
And the best part? You only need about 300 m / 330 yds of fingering weight yarn.
I knitted the scarf in the photo with Zitron Seidenstrasse (65% merino, 35% silk; 400 m / 437 yds per 100 g).
I bought this skein almost a decade ago on a hot July day from a lovely little yarn shop in Regensburg, Germany. It’s been patiently waiting for the perfect project, and this was it!
