Construction Notes
“Chiaroscuro Scarf” is knitted from end to end starting with nine strip fringes.
All the strips are worked at the same time but separately in purled garter stitch, to create a stable fabric, using nine different balls of yarn.
During the knitting process, at regular intervals, the strips are twisted and joined together.
