Unbelievably light and soft, this lace scarf was designed to be knit with laceweight alpaca yarn on 3mm needles. It measures around 16.5x140cm (6.5x55in).

This is the second of two patterns inspired by traditional English gardens I was fortunate enough to encounter on a recent trip to the U.K. The design is based on my impressions of trellised vines and a multitude of blossoms and is meant to have a vintage feel.

The pattern is quite straightforward and can be knit by anyone with a bit of lace knitting experience.

The second photo is the scarf knit with a pure Thai silk yarn.

The last two photos show a bit of a variation on this pattern - in that I used 3.5mm needles and one ball of Drops Kidsilk yarn. There are 24 pattern repeats and it measures 8x44” (20x112cm).
