A little rebel at heart, this scarf brings lace and aran weight yarn together!
And the lace pattern acts like a rebel, too. It pulls the sides into zigzags although you knit straight up. In the middle, a wave cable follows the zigzags. The thick yarn and big needles make this scarf a fun and quick knit – or gift!
