Bias Seed stitch and Lace, combine to create a whimsical, fun to knit scarf. Made with one, 100 g skein of speckled, fingering weight yarn and an optional skein of very fine mohair as an accent. It would be equally gorgeous in a tonal yarn, something with a little sheen, or color blocked.

This pattern is a great way to learn bias knitting, i-cord edging and practice a simple lace stitch.

-You can find Republic of Wool yarn here. She changes the colors she’s dying regularly so this colorway may not be available but she has lots of other beautiful colors in fingering weight. Watch for weekly updates when she adds new yarn to the shop. Be ready, they sell out fast!
Note: This scarf used up every bit of the skein including the initial swatch, which I pulled out and began knitting from. If your gauge doesn’t match or you worry about running out, get a second skein.
