Errata:

Row 2 of slip stitch pattern is missing a p1. It should read: Slip 1 wyif, bring yarn to back, k1, p1, k5, (p1, k7) twice, p1, k5, p1, k2. Each slip stitch should be purled on the back.

A very narrow, long breezy scarf, inspired by one worn by Elizabeth Bennet in the well-loved 1995 BBC Pride & Prejudice series. She wears a long, slim scarf while strolling along grassy paths. This piece adds texture, strong vertical lines, and simple lace, for a scarf that is as straightforward land lovely as Miss Bennet herself.
