This scarf can be knitted with just about any yarn and needle combination that you find enjoyable. Do not feel constrained by the yarn and needle size listed above! Do what looks and feels right for you, but realize that the size of your scarf may change if you veer too far from worsted weight and size 7 needles. You may need more yarn!

I was very pleased to be able to knit an entire scarf out of one 4oz skein of handspun. Sometimes that single skein of beautifully handspun yarn is hard to work with simply because not many patterns call for just one skein. Plus, a scarf is something you can wear day after day and really have the opportunity to enjoy to its fullest.
