Churchmouse dubbed this scarf 'before & after' because it's so ugly before it's blocked and so beautiful after. Knitted on the bias, this light, airy scarf has the smooth simplicity of stockinette stitch without all of the rolling at the edges. Layer two scarves for coziness. The pattern includes simple instructions for adding beads at the ends.
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS: Approximately 8 x 94 inches after blocking (bias width across stitches in direction of needle will measure approximately 11 inches)
YARN: Approximately 460 yards of laceweight yarn and 3-4 yards of smooth waste yarn
GAUGE: Approximately 21-22 stitches = 4 inches in bias stockinette (before blocking) and approximately 19-20 stitches = 4 inches in bias stockinette (after blocking)
NEEDLES: US 7 needles and one needle several sizes larger for binding off, Size G crochet hook for provisional cast-on, and Size 10 steel crochet hook for placing beads
NOTIONS: Darning needle, locking marker, 2 packages of Mill Hill size 6 beads (118 beads plus a few extras) and 3 short blocking wires
