Giving You Lifelines

I love knitting stripes. Never seem to get enough of them. After I posted my scarves made from stash yarn I have gotten a lot of emails from knitters wanting to know the pattern.

I finally got my yarn together and made up the pattern. In order to do that I knitted a new scarf and called it Lifelines.

I was inspired by the tiny line of orange light in the horizon when the sun rises. I little line of assurance that the sun always rises with hope of a new day.

The bright tomato color from Madelinetosh sort of reminded me of that line together with the Noro Silk Garden Sock yarn.

The scarf is knitted from one end to the other. You knit two alternating rows of your preferred color. Mine is 270 x 52cm long.

I used up two skeins of Noro and 1.5 skein from Madelinetosh.

You can actually use any kind of yarn weight for this project. Use up a lot of stash or get yourself some favorite skeins.

I hope you like my new design. It is both in english and norwegian.

  6. Den er gemt i biblioteket og jeg har faktisk noget garn der vil egne sig, så det er slet ikke utænkeligt, at det kommer på pindene i nær fremtid. Lækkert tørklæde:)
