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.

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

An elegant scarf inspired by the contrast between the delicacy and strength of dragonflies in flight, this design offers the knitter an original stitch pattern (“Formositas,” literally “beauty” in Latin) and is knit flat (in one piece).

Quick results and lovely appearance are further enhanced by its pairing with a striking scarf pendant such as the silver-tone Dragonfly slide (which is also pictured here).
