A trip to Ireland isn’t complete without taking in the spectacular beauty of the Ring of Kerry on the west coast of Ireland. The 179-km route includes scenic views of beaches, the lakes of Killarney, mystical castles, the town of Kenmare and their lace-making industry, and so much more. This infinity scarf captures a bit of that mystical, magical landscape and includes a bit of everything too….lace, color, and more!

Errata:
In written instructions, it states work Ring of Kerry Lace Chart/Pattern 7 times or until 12 1/2”. Omit “7 times” and just knit section until it measures 12 1/2”.

Notes: Instructions are written for either a 2-color or 3-color infinity scarf that is knit flat and then grafted together. Both charted and written instructions are provided for the easy-to-memorize, 7-stitch lace repeat. Notes on how to increase the size of the scarf are at the end of the pattern; however you will need additional yardage.

Finished measurements: 50” circumference and 9 3/4” tall
