1940s Keyhole Scarf
Transport yourself back to the 1940s with this beautifully designed lace-weight scarf pattern, a nod to the vintage knitting styles that were popular during that era. Perfectly crafted for those who appreciate the delicate intricacy of lace-weight yarn, this scarf features a chic keyhole loop.

The scarf is knitted in double-moss stitch, adding texture and charm to your finished piece.
The sample scarves are knitted using Z Hinchcliffe & Sons Lambswool in classic white and Todd & Duncan Geelong Lambswool in a stunning Titian Blue—both available on a convenient cone. However, if you're looking for alternatives, consider using other lace-weight or 2-ply yarns for your project. Top recommendations include West Yorkshire Spinners' Exquisite, Malabrigo Lace, or Rowan's Fine Lace yarns. Each of these options offers a soft feel and beautiful drape, perfect for this vintage-inspired scarf.
