Our Side-By-Side Scarf grabs your attention and doesn't let go. You will be riveted by knitting something so totally beautiful! The source of inspiration here is our self-striping Novella, specially dyed in a repeating series of colors that unspool in fascinating ways, smoky mauve blending into tangerine into bright morning blue. It's a joy to knit with a yarn so rich in variation!
- You'll use two different colorways of Novella working side-by-side in two directions... Swoon!
- What may look complex is really all the work of Novella's long lengths of color. The knitting is actually super simple: First you cast on and work in garter stitch for a couple inches, then you work the next section perpendicular to the first, joining as you go (not a lick of sewing!). Very cool and also very easy!
- Over many stitches, Novella's repeats of specially dyed color spread out into delicate, thin stripes, and when you're working over fewer stitches, the stripes are deeper, piling up like layers of a sunset (and just as captivating!).
- Plus, it all feels absolutely wonderful in Novella's extraordinarily soft and supple mix of extra fine merino and mulberry silk!
Each Side-By-Side Scarf Bundle has 8 balls in 2 colors of Novella, one for the long, thin stripes and one for the perpendicular stripes. Cast on with Delphinium Blue and Sea Urchin like we did, or pick another of the three lovely palettes!
Please Note: No two balls of Novella are the same, so no two Side-By-Side Scarves will look the same. The shades and stripes will be a bit different... Wonderfully, uniquely beautiful every time!
