Sizes
Small Large
Sizes are based on gauge and yarn weight. The length is customizable.
Finished Measurements
80 (106)“ / 203 (269)cm long, 16 (18)” / 41 (46)cm wide.
Yarn
Worsted (chunky) weight
The green/orange/purple/speckled sample scarf uses 1 strand of aran weight held together with 1 strand of lace weight mohair/silk to achieve a chunky fabric.
Yardage:
Approximately 1250 (1500)yds / 1143 (1372)m total
The large sample uses 8 colors of Hedgehog Fibres Merino Aran held together with coordinating color of kidsilk mohair. If you have approximately 150-200yds / 137-183m of each color, that will be enough to create a generously sized scarf. Feel free to use as many colors as you like. This fabric is ideal for using up leftover bits of yarn.
If you wish to make a similar fabric with fuzzy mohair, you will need the recommended yardage for both the worsted or aran weight AND the kidsilk mohair.
Needles
32” US 8 (10) / 5 (6)mm circular needle
The fabric is knit flat, but circular needles are required for the brioche and knit ‘n slide stitch patterns.
Notions
6 stitch markers, tapestry needle
Gauge
