Introducing a delightful scarf set that beautifully combines texture and the classic Fair Isle technique, perfect for keeping you warm and stylish during those chilly days. This cosy scarf features lovely heathery shades of exquisite yarn, carefully chosen to perfectly complement the main section of the scarf and enhance the big pockets designed for your hands to snuggle into. Ideal for frosty weather, this scarf is not only functional but also a fashionable staple for your winter wardrobe.

The scarf showcases a variety of knitting techniques, including garter stitch, moss stitch, and single ribbing, all of which create a visually appealing double-sided design. To ensure a seamless knitting experience, it’s recommended to mark which side is the right side; otherwise, distinguishing between the two sides can become quite challenging and may complicate row counts. For even more versatility, the Fair Isle pockets can be knitted using the steek technique, or alternatively, each pocket can be worked flat, according to your preference. Additionally, the chic headband is knitted in the round, incorporating stitches picked up from the cable edge, while the second cable edge is expertly sewn on for a polished finish.

This stunning pattern is available as part of a two-part "knitalong," featured in Subscribers' copies of Issues 41 and 42 of our knitting magazine. Elevate your knitting skills and enjoy crafting this beautiful scarf set! Plus, you can source the luxurious yarn directly from the New Lanark Wool and Textiles mills located in the historic town of New Lanark, Scotland.
