The Ocean Waves Lacy Scarf Knitting Pattern
Knitting this beautiful lacy scarf pattern called The Butternut Scarf here on ravelry was a bit challenging for me because it was quite lacy and I really had to pay attention. But what a beautiful scarf it has turned out to be! It’s always a great feeling to finish a challenging project.
I used worsted weight yarn called Karabella Aurora 8. It’s 100% extra fine Merino Wool yarn. It’s soft and beautiful.
The pattern calls for a cast on of 73 stitches, but because I am using worsted weight yarn instead of the recommended fingering weight, I opted for 59 stitches.
The needle I used for this project is a size 6 needle from an interchangeable set from Knitpicks: Majestic Circular Needles. I love these needles! The wood feels warm in my hands and the joins are very smooth.
I just love the way this scarf is turning out!
It took a couple weeks to knit this scarf but it was worth the wait. After weaving in the ends, I pulled out my Eucalan, filled the sink with lavender scented bubbles and gave the scarf a bath.
The scarf was only about 8 inches wide while knitting it, but was twice that after blocking. The final dimensions are 16″ x 42″
