Ethereal Srowflake Searf
This ethereal looking scarf was knit using one strand Avocado Capra and one strand of Green Zing String. It is VERY easy and quick to knit, yet gives the look of lace and elegance. The idea is to have the string of the Zing String match the Capra, so as it gets carried along and then dropped off these changes are not noticeable. Materials: 1 Skein Mango Moon Capra and 2 spools Zing String. With Capra and Zing String you can make two 36” scarves, or one long scarf. The choice is yours!! Directions: Cast on 23 stitches (loosely) on the lar ger needle using Capra (any odd number of stitches will work). Using the smaller needle, begin your seed stitch—knit one, purl one—always beginning and ending each row with a knit stitch. Carry Zing String along every third or fifth row as follows: At the third row, simply lay the Zing String next to the Capra and work both for that row and every third or fifth row from then on. When you complete the row using both strands, drop the Zing String to the side and when you get back a couple of rows later, pick it up and work both strands again. Just laying the Zing String next to the edge of the scarf's worked rows will be enough to keep it virtually unnoticeable. You may want to catch the Zing String in the last stitch knit sometimes so it gets carried along as part of the piece, creating a more finished look. Knit as long as you want to make the scarf. Add Capra fringe if desired.
Note: Use mismatched needles. This scarf was knit using one size 13 (US) needle and one size 10 (US) needle, but any similar combination will work. Using the different sized needles gives the scarf structure and interest. Substitute one skein of Parade for the Zing String for another fun look. The scarf pictured right, and detail picture, left, is Lagoon Capra with Saturn Parade.
Have fun. You can't do this one wrong. Each change you make just makes it yours!
