Fire Scarf


This scarf is light and lacy, but knitted up with something like baby llama wool by Mirasol, it is cozy and warm. This pattern is easy to memorize and works well with most yarns.

Craft: knitting
Skill Level: Rookie-Apprentice-Virtuoso-Genius
Skills: knit, purl, yarn over

Sizes: one size
Finished Measurements: approx. 4.5” across, 52” from end to end lying flat

Notes and Tips:
• The yarn overs can be deceiving because you are going from a purl to a knit and may not actually need to wrap the yarn - be sure you are actually creating an extra stitch on your needle.
