More Scarves For Friday Freebie

The first Friday Freebie scarf pays homage to the traditional Ecru Aran knits that last forever and get handed down from one generation to another.


The Diane scarf from Lion Brand puts an interesting spin on the wandering cable and mimics a Calla Lily! Simple enough for a beginner to tackle yet a satisfying quick knit for the more experienced knitter! Break out the 100% Merino for this baby!




If you're looking for something a little more feminine and elaborate to knit, how about this lovely Lamina scarf from Knitty? As you can see, it's multi-tonal friendly, but I wouldn't get too carried away. I'd stick to shades of the same color so as not to take away from the lace stitches.



Last but certainly not least is the Magnolia scarf from Classic Elite. This scarf is SO classic! They knit it in a silk/wool blend and I say why not? In fact I can't think of a single yarn you wouldn't want to knit this in! It is knit in two pieces, from each end and then woven or kitchenered together in the middle - that's how you get such nice lace on both ends. Talk about your "Zen" knit! Can't you just see this thing being knit to a great length without the knitter noticing? And if you want a really terrific men's scarf,  just skip the lace ends and use the main body pattern. You'll end up with a scarf that will get worn until it actually wears out! Cheers all! Enjoy!
