Vail
Baby Alpaca • Bamboo
Like its namesake, Vail is pure luxury; unlike its namesake, it won’t cost you a fortune! A light fingering designed to be used for garments and accessories, Vail is 70% baby alpaca and 30% bamboo viscose. The bamboo gives it the most delicate luster and drape, while the alpaca contributes an ethereal softness.

PATTERN ERRATA: On Row 11, sts 17 and 27 should be skp not s2kp. On Row 17, sts 8, 18, and 28 should be skp not s2kp. Patterns downloaded after 2/25/13 are correct.

This soft and drapey lace scarf is worked in 2 halves: The first half begins with a provisional cast on at the center and is worked to the end. The second half is worked to the opposite end from the provisional stitches at center. Two hanks of Vail will leave ample yarn to work an extra pattern repeat on each half if a longer scarf is desired.
