Tiny shawl or scarf trend has finally reached me! It took me a while to get to this point, but now I see all the possible styling options and ways these little projects will brighten our knitterly lives and I’m so excited.

Milkshake Scarf has a shallow boomerang shape and is knitted in garter stitch with very simple intarsia for a relaxing knitting experience and joyful outcome. Milkshake Scarf is also a great pattern for using up mini skeins or odds and ends, especially in the smaller sizes.

Note: There are 4 different size options included in the pattern and also the option to knit the scarf in just one color, without intarsia.
