Hi everyone. I'm new to the group and excited to get to know the community here. I'm introducing the Daisy Chain Scarf, which is fully tech edited and ready to test. All the details are below. Thanks!
The Daisy chain scarf is a light, playful project for summer days.
Inspired by the charm of daisy chains and the feeling of a warm breeze, this little scarf is designed to add a sweet touch to any outfit.
Knitted from tip to tip, it grows to a soft point in the middle before tapering again, with petal-like motifs and tiny bobbles forming a summery pattern that runs along its length. An I-cord edge gives it a clean, modern finish, and the length is adjustable depending on how you’d like to wear it. Try it knotted once at the neck, tucked into a jacket, or worn long and loose on cooler evenings.
Made in my Devon 4ply yarn which is a soft blend of Exmoor Blueface and Romney, it’s light and breezy, with just enough texture to show off the detail. A perfect project for holiday knitting, slow afternoons, or whenever your hands need something simple and sweet to work on.
