“Bloomy Scarf” is a part of a larger knitting project which includes a scarf, a wrap and a stole.

By purchasing the pattern instructions of any of the three , you will also get those of the other ones.

It has been designed considering that the seasons and their temperatures vary depending on where you are.

So you may need to wrap yourself in the warmth of a wide stole or just cover a little your shoulders or at least only your neck.

That’s why “Bloomy” comes out in three different measures (scarf, wrap and stole) and can be knitted by matching the mohair with ITO Asa a very thin linen yarn with a little bit of silk and cotton ITO Shio 100% wool for a warmer version.

Knitted using a simple pattern repeat featuring lace flowers alternating with parts in stockinette stitch.

An easy combination of slipped stitches, increases and decreases creates a soft wavy edge on all four sides.

Pattern rows are worked on both the right and wrong side and even if they look different, both of them are well curated in the details and equally pleasant to see so that “Bloomy” can be considered as reversible.

The pattern instructions go together with video tutorials supporting all the different techniques used.
