Knitting Kit - Claire Scarf by Lisa Hannes

Pattern not included - you must purchase the pattern on Ravelry here. 

Pattern available in English. 

A floral motif inspired by pointelle lace adorns this beautiful scarf.

The Claire Scarf is a long shawl or scarf knitted sideways. It starts at one point, then is knitted to the other end, creating an elongated shape with a straight central section and tapered ends. It’s a shape I find very pleasant to knit and very easy to wear.

I made my original swatch with a fine, fluffy lace yarn held double, which gives a swatch equivalent to a fingering weight yarn. However, the pattern offers many options to easily adjust it if you wish to use a different yarn weight and/or make a smaller or larger scarf depending on the yardage you have.
It is adjustable in both length and width, and also makes an excellent project for a single 100g skein of fingering weight yarn.

The instructions are fully detailed row by row, as well as in chart form, so you can choose the method you prefer.

SAMPLE DIMENSIONS
Length: 149 cm / 58.75"
Width: 27 cm / 10.75"
Adjustable in length and width to create the size of your choice depending on available yardage.

YARN
Designed for a fluffy lace yarn held double to achieve a fingering weight. The pattern is easily adaptable to other yarn weights and/or yardage.
Yarn used for the sample:
Cardiff Cashmere Prime (fine and fluffy lace, 68% cashmere, 32% silk, 25g = 300m / 328 yds), 1.9 skeins used (48g = 570m / 623 yds), color 133 Galileo. Knitted double throughout.
If using a single strand of fingering weight yarn, you will only need half the indicated yardage.

GAUGE & NEEDLES
Not critical for this project, but differences will affect the yardage required and final dimensions.
Gauge: 24 stitches x 32 rows = 10 x 10 cm in lace stitch.
Needles used: 4.0 mm / US 6.
