This lightweight and squishy scarf-shawl hybrid is crafted from a fantastic sport weight merino yarn by Dye for Wool. Their color palette is expansive and inviting, and for those looking for flexibility, you can easily substitute one skein of sock yarn to achieve a similar result. The chosen yarn for this pattern is the fabulous “Grandpa’s Trousers” shade, 100% organic merino superwash, adding a touch of luxury to your creation.
Upon blocking, the finished size measures approximately 8 x 61 inches, making it a generous accessory that can be styled in numerous ways. For this pattern, you will need one skein of Dye for Wool Merino Sport (350y/100g), US 4 (3.5mm) straight needles or a size needed to obtain gauge, and US 5 (3.75mm) long circular needles for finishing the edge.
Ensure a proper fit with a gauge of 23 stitches and 28 rows, which equals 4 inches in stockinette stitch on the smaller needles, after blocking. Get ready to embrace functionality and elegance with the Brayne Scarf-Shawl Cross, the perfect knitting project to elevate your accessory collection!
