The Ginepro Scarf comes in two variants, one for the cold months and one for the warmer months. Both of them are made using yarns from Purl Soho, Flax Down and Spectrum Silk. The scarf was designed to be a project that you can work without thinking too much about what you need to do, in fact it uses a simple lace motif made with yarn overs repeated over and over, until you reach the desired length for your scarf.
