Knit a sweet little scarf for the romantic at heart. Sweetheart Scarf features Ambah’s love heart lace pattern. This versatile piece can be worn wrapped once or twice around the neck or styled as a head scarf. This pattern offers both written and charted instructions and is worked from the bottom up and joined in the centre. Choose between fingering or DK weight yarn, or Sweetheart can be easily adapted to most yarn weights. Simply adjust the number of lace repeats to suit your yardage. Knit one for yourself and another as a special gift for a sweetheart in your life.

To achieve its symmetry, Sweetheart is constructed by working two identical sides, from outer point to centre, and grafting them together upon completion with kitchener stitch.

The pattern includes both written and charted instructions.
