Lovecrafts said: “We love Stella Ackroyd’s designs, and her gorgeous Newton Hurdle Scarf is no exception! Worked on a four row repeat in The Yarn Collective’s Hudson Worsted, the resulting scarf is super lofty and deeply warm. Hudston Worsted grows fast, and will keep the cold at bay when you wrap up for colder seasons.”

Knitted from one skein in each of three shades (I used Pumpkin 407, Natural 401 and Charcoal 403), the textured colour stripes make this an interesting project which keeps moving right till the final cast off, eliminating the challenge of the usual loooong repetition of sameness.

It’s a lovely design when finished and offers a truly unisex style.
