Winter's Lavendar Lace Scarf
(Heather Coady @ Nesta's Glenn Knitting September 06, 2009)
Materials:
4 balls of Lavendar (Colour 508) Lana Grossa New Cotton Lino (50 grams approx. 100 m per ball)
5.5 mm circular needles
Darning Needle
Dimensions: Approx 10 inches wide, by whatever desired length you choose, my finished scarf was approx 64 inches long (be sure to adjust your yardage if you modify the length)
Pattern: (This scarf is worked in 2 seperate pieces, and then sewn together in the middle)
Cast on 49 stitches and purl one row. Work the following lace pattern until you have almost used up 2 balls of yarn (you will need to have 2 rows of stockinette stitch and one cast off row left over)
Row #1 - K3, (yo, k2, sl 1, k1, psso, k2tog, k2, yo, k1) rep to last st, k1
Row #2 - purl
Row #3 - k2, (yo, k2, sl 1, k1, psso, k2tog, k2, yo, k1) rep to last 2 sts, k2
Row #4 - purl
End with a 4th row pattern repeat, knit 1 row, purl 1 more row, then bind off all 49 stitches. (Make 2 pieces the same)
Finishing:
With darning needle, use mattress stitch, and sew the two pieces together. Because this yarn is so drapey, and luxurious, there is no reason to block, unless you prefer to. I choose this yarn, because frankly, I could do with blocking, well most of the time anyway. Tuck in all the ends. Wear it and feel like a diva.
