Your perfect summer caston! The striped Jaunty Scarf is a versatile little knit. Wear it wrapped twice around your neck, long and loose, or tied like a necktie.

The knitting is quite relaxing - gentle stocking stitch and a little increasing and decreasing - with a little excitement from stripes and colour changes to keep you engaged. It’s the perfect knit for bringing on holiday or to the beach.
