Welcome to my Kiltipper Scarf pattern. This scarf is very simple to make and uses very little yarn. Great for stash busting and brightening up an outfit. What more could you ask for? Try it in diffrent weights of blockable yar,try stripes or bands of colour, pin it with abrooch or use beads and buttons to decorate it. Itis a canvas for creativity, quick to make and beautiful to wear. I plan to make these as Christmas presents this year, how many can you make? I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed designing and making it.

Dressing/Blocking
I blocked my scarf on a double bed with blocking wires and rustproof pins,but al you really need i large enough fla space, measuring tape, rustproof pins and time! Soak the scarf in lukewarm water with some gentle detergent suitable for your yarn. If using wool, don't alter the temperature of the water as this could cause felting. Rinse until all the detergent is rinsed out, wrap in a colourfast towel, and blot to take out most of the moisture. Lay out on your chosen flat surface and pin out along the top edge, stretching gently, and then along each point of the edging. You can use the tape measure to make sure each side is even and the top edge is in a straight line. Leave until completely dry. Unpin and enjoy! Key
