The scarf is knitted from end to end in one piece. Dainty look-alike scalloped edgings begin and end the scarf. The outer border is knit as-you-go in a textured garter-based lace that sets off the main area with a visual mixing of colors.

Allow 325 yards of laceweight yarn for blocked measurements of 8" x 58" scarf, or desired length and width with yardage adjustment. Average of 7 stitches/inch over combination of border and main patterns, size US 5 / 3.75 mm needles suggested. Charted and written stitch instructions.

Pictured model was knitted with Schaefer Yarns Andrea 100% silk in a palette of gold/rust/brown/fuchsia to celebrate an autumn splendor of color. Schaefer doesn't have an exact color name for this yarn, but it is a somewhat brighter and more intense version of the color they call Louisa May Alcott.
