Note: The basic pattern as written (without customization) will comfortably accommodate most wearers. However, it can easily be lengthened (if desired) by adding more rows.

BARBARA is a great two-evening or weekend-day project!

An elegant scarf inspired by a memorable afternoon spent touring a vineyard, this pattern offers the knitter three options for different looks, and it is knit flat (in one piece).

The quick results and lovely appearance of this design are further enhanced by pairing it with a striking scarf pendant such as the gold-tone Vintner’s Reserve slide (which is also pictured in this pattern).

The seeming complexity of the lacy openwork -- representation of a bunch of grapes suspended from a vine upon which rests a trio of leaves -- is actually simple to execute, and row-by-row narrative instructions are provided.

The arbor-canopy stitch pattern (which makes up the balance of the body of the scarf) is an easily-memorized repeat that is both enjoyable to knit and pleasing to view …

You will get compliments on this beautiful piece, from knitter and non-knitter alike!
