Pink seems to be the colour of the session

Pink and only pink seems to be the colour of the session if you are a little girl. I hope my gifts will be appreciated and therefore I obey the rules of fashion…

The scarves are knitted in Lana Grossa’s Chaira yarn  colour 001. When I saw this yarn in KDW Berlin I bought it as it seemed soft enough for sensitive skin. The different stitches chosen are Honey Comb Stitch and Leave lace pattern.

Scarf with a nice effect

Scarf with a nice effect

This “scarf” (halsedisse) is made for a small child, but I had no child model at hand so this is why the scarf looks a bit small. I especially like the effect of the Lana Grossa – Numero Uno Print yarn. You can use any yarn you like but I used Lana Grossa – Numero Uno Print and Hjertegarn Superwash Vital.

All I did was:

Cast on 80 stitches of Lana Grossa – Numero Uno Print yarn on a circular needle with size 4,5 (European size). The pattern: knit one – purl one until the tube is 15 centimetres long.

The rest of the scarf is knitted in Hjertegarn Superwash Vital. Leave 40 stitches (part A) on a separate needle to rest while you knit the remaining 40 stitches (part B).
