This short scarf is a fun way to practice lace knitting. The winding road, like life, starts out straight and quickly begins to traverse back and forth as we wind through our years. As we near the end of our lives and the scarf, the road straightens out once again!

The lace design is charted and written out.

The sample is knit using about 75% of a skein of Spring Gate Farm’s Cashmere (50%)/Silk (25%)/Merino (25%) fiber is a lovely, deep teal. This yarn takes dye amazingly and is so nice to knit with … the stitch definition is glorious!
