Love of Crochet, Winter 2015 |
If you have had a design published in a magazine or book, then you know how long it takes to go from submitting the idea, to writing up the pattern and creating the sample piece, to publication; the finished design is released into the world. This process took about a year, but can at times take 18-24 months.
About the design:
The Easy Asymmetric Scarf is worked sideways in an asymmetrical shape and uses a simple filet pattern repeat. The boxy and orderly filet stitch pattern is softened with a feminine lacy edging.
The Easy Asymmetric Scarf is worked up in Blue Moon Fiber Arts' Socks that Rocks Lightweight in colorway Big Brain Blue. Cool color name, huh? Spoiler Alert: If you have never used this yarn before, you are missing out. This yarn is amazing to work with. It has great stitch definition that really shows off the details of the filet stitch and the lace edge pattern. Many knitters gush over the yarn for socks - how sturdy and long lasting finished socks are. But, when crocheted up into a scarf, and worn around the neck, the yarn and the fabric it creates is so fun.
Finished Measurements: 75" long and 16.5" at widest point
Gauge: 14 sts and 8 rows = 4" in pattern
Yarn: Blue Moon Socks that Rocks Lightweight (100% Superwash Merino; 405 yards/146 grams) in Big Brain Blue
Hook: US size H/8 (5.0mm) or size to obtain gauge
