Skills Required Knitting in the round  Judy’s Magic Cast On or Mattress stitch   Stranded colourwork   Kitchener Stitch 

Construction Starting with Judy’s Magic Cast On (optional) the scarf is worked as a tube in stockinette st in the round and is grafted closed at the end using Kitchener Stitch. The design is worked with stranded colourwork with no more than 2 colours at once with no catching of floats. Instructions are written and charted.

Yarn   Both samples use yarns that are light and fluffy, this is intentional as it means your scarf will not be stiff and heavy so keep this in mind when looking for alternatives. Blown, unspun and multiple strands of fluffy lace/fingering weight yarns are great choices. Avoid yarns that are 100% merino, alpaca or cotton when using a single strand as these will be very heavy. If using mutiple strands,  the given meterage applies to each strand.
