The Angora Peaks Scarf pattern was designed to highlight handspun angora yarn. 100% angora yarn has an incredibly full, soft halo that retains warmth despite being knit at a loose gauge. The angora is paired with a smooth wool blend yarn to prevent totally obscuring the mountain peak-like colorwork pattern. The scarf pattern can easily be widened and lengthened; blocking the scarf increases the length quite drastically due to the fiber content and the loose gauge- take this into account when deciding how long to knit the scarf.

The scarf is worked from both ends in to the center then grafted together using kitchener st.
