Sunflowers is a lighthearted scarf modeled after the big, cheerful blooms that show their sunny faces in late summer and throughout fall. Two stitch pattern types are used to create narrower and wider sections, producing a sequence of ‘blooms’ as you move along the scarf.

Sunflowers’ unique shape is sure to make a statement with any outfit. Knit this pattern in a rustic yarn for a casual look, or choose a sleek yarn to create a one-of-a-kind office accessory.

This pattern is written to be accessible to everyone. If you’ve never picked up knitting needles before, you’ll find the instructions you need to understand all the steps in creating this scarf.
