This airy lace scarf was worked with hand-painted yarns of different textures and complementary colorways. The combination of the yarns give additional dimention to the lace pattern.
It's a fast and easy knit and would make a great gift.

Finished size: approx. 5” wide Yarn: Sugar Apple Creations Hand-painted Cashmerino (60% Cashmere, 40% Merino Wool) in Lavender colorway Sugar Apple Creations Hand-painted Kid Mohair (100% Kid Mohair) in Spring Moss colorway Yarn Substitutions: The Cashmerino is a light sport weight yarn. The mohair is a laceweight. Unfortunately, I forgot to note how many yards I had used, but you should be able to make a long enough scarf with about 200-220 yards of yarn. Needles: US 10 straight needles
NOTES: k2tog - knit two stiches together p2tog - purl two stitches together ssk - slip, slip, knit. Slip the 1st and 2nd stitches knitwise and knit them together. p2togb- purl two stitches together through the back loops. If you haven't done this one before, it's a little awkward, but not hard. You're just sticking your RH needle from left to right from the back loops of the 2 stiches, then you purl them together.
If you prefer to use a chart instead of row by row instructions, use the one below. I've numbered the rows in accordance to the corresponding written instructions. This is a very basic pattern with 3 rows of seed stitch at both ends of the scarf. The lace pattern is repeated twice and inserted between 3-stitch seed stitch at the beginning and end of each row.

Rows 1-3: [k, p] Row 4: k, p, k, [k4, k2tog, k1, yo] twice, k3, k, p, k Row 5: k, p, k, p3, [yo, p2, p2tog, p3] twice, k, p, k Row 6: k, p, k, [k2, k2tog, k3, yo] twice, k3, k, p, k Row 7: k, p, k, p3, [yo, p4, p2tog, p1] twice, k, p, k Row 8: k, p, k, [k2tog, k5, yo] twice, k3, k, p, k Row 9: k, p, k, [p4, p2togb, p1, yo] twice, p3, k, p, k Row 10: k, p, k, k3, [yo, k2, ssk, k3] twice, k, p, k Row 11: k, p, k, [p2, p2togb, p3, yo] twice, p3, k, p, k Row 12: k, p, k, k3, [yo, k4, ssk, k1] twice, k, p, k Row 13: k, p, k, [p2togb, p5, yo] twice, p3, k, p, k
