Lacy leaves clinging, bare stems twining around strong lines of a vineyard… that is what inspired this scarf. And just as it can be unexpected to find beauty in a bare branch, this scarf found lace in an unusual heavy yarn weight. A soft, sculpted fabric was formed from this bulky yarn; knotted fringe completes the ends and complements the vineyard pattern.

The rapid pattern repeat allows this scarf to be worked until a skein is finished. The length can be easily adjusted to whatever you like. Since both are included, either the chart or written instructions may be used for the lace pattern. Detailed instructions are given for making the knotted fringe. All these things, plus the big friendly yarn, make this scarf a perfect nonthreatening first-lace project.
