Waterfall Summer Scarf
Please feel free to join my KAL on Facebook @ www.facebook.com/groups/knitworknetwork/ It'll be a blast to virtually gather while knitting a free something!
About
Waterfall Summer Scarf is a bias-knit scarf adaption of my original design, I Stole a Waterfall. Using the same lace and cable pattern featured in that pattern, I wanted to develop a single skein project in honor of the approach of spring.
We all know that in the spring and summer we may get more active, and in the northern hemisphere it can get too warm to knit big bulky multi-skein wool projects. Waterfall Summer Scarf is a great way to honor both circumstances. As a one skein project, it won’t get too hot to work on, and it knits up quick for those people who want to be out adventuring but still working up fast projects.
Another reason I created this jewel, as I’ve talked to people, I heard from a lot of new or inexperienced knitters that they like the look of cables but they’re intimidated by a larger project. This scarf is a great opportunity to experience bias-knitting, cabling and lace, with only a one skein commitment. =)
This pattern is now an additional file received when you purchase I Stole a Waterfall.
The pattern is both written and charted to accommodate knitters who prefer both methods.
I’d love it if you would tag your finished garments and works in progress on social media with one or more of the following hashtags:

Yarn & Gauge
I would be remiss if I didn't shout out to In the Deep Hue Sea for providing yarn support for this design. Erica at In the Deep Hue Sea has been an amazing collaborator, friend and incredibly supportive as I've been working to get my designer legs beneath me!
This pattern uses approximately 1 skein of fingering weight yarn. A looser gauge may put you closer to jeopardy; a tighter gauge may result in more leftover yarn in your stash. Because this item is not a fitted garment, the gauge is relatively unimportant, except in relation to how much yarn you will need to complete your project. Detailed suggestions are included in the construction notes regarding how to adapt to possible shortages or overages of yarn.
Gauge
Lace: 28 sts x 34 rows = 4”
Yarn
Fingering Weight Yarn in 1 skein 100g each
In the Deep Hue Sea Caribbean(463yds/100g) – By the Seaside
Contributions
Patterns are not written in a vacuum, and I couldn’t do this without the help of a literal tribe of people. People who test knitted, people who knit samples, others who modeled, tech edited, copy edited, provided resources for a variety of information, people who held my hand, wiped my tears and assuaged my anxiety, people who took photos. Heartfelt thanks goes out to each and every one of them for whatever assistance they provided, intentional or otherwise.
I should also call Irina Blizzard, owner of Blizzard Yarn and Fiber, out by name. She offered to lend me some of her very precious time and model this project for me. No words can express how honored I am.
