Cilou

Introducing the Cilou Scarf, a bulkier and lush accessory that adds warmth and style to your wardrobe. This beautiful scarf is expertly knit using the rich, inviting shades of Cascade Yarns Eco Duo, making it a luxurious addition to any knitting enthusiast's collection. The color pattern is inspired by the softly blurred designs created when the warp of an Ikat fabric is meticulously tied onto a loom, giving the Cilou Scarf a unique visual appeal that stands out.

This eye-catching scarf is designed to be knit in the round from the bottom up, a technique that enhances its plushness. A provisional cast-on method is employed, allowing you to later complete a three-needle bind-off. This creates a sturdy edge that is perfect for attaching the stylish fringe, which adds an elegant finishing touch to your project. With three detailed charts for the engaging colorwork pattern and comprehensive instructions for adding the fringe, this pattern is suitable for intermediate knitters looking to enhance their skills.

Upon completion, the Cilou Scarf measures a generous 8 inches in width and an impressive 73.5 inches in length, making it a versatile accessory that can be styled in multiple ways. The yarns used are high-quality Cascade Yarns Eco Duo, which consists of 70% undyed baby alpaca and 30% undyed merino wool, ensuring both comfort and warmth. For the project, you will need:
