The Design

“A lace scarf that will never wear out.”

The Diagonal Lace Scarf is perfect for lightweight coziness indoors or out. And it’s an easy and satisfying lace pattern to knit–the repeating diagonal lines of eyelet provide easy visual clues, so you can quickly learn to “read” your lace and stop counting and looking at the chart.

We couldn’t resist reyarning it in Hemp for Knitting’s summer-friendly allhemp6. Mercerized for color fastness, softness and sheen, it won’t fade or pill. And it only gets softer and more lustrous with each washing and drying. The more you wear it, the more you’ll love it!
