Lion Brand^® Alpine Wool

GAUGE:

14 sts + 20 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) over Arrow Lace. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

NOTES:

1. Scarf is worked in 4 different lace patterns, always keeping the first and last 2 sts of every row in Seed st.
2. Each lace pattern is worked for 10 in. (25.5 cm).
3. If you’d like to make a shorter scarf, simply work fewer lace sections.
To adjust yarn amount for a shorter scarf, note that each ball of yarn will make about 1 1/2 lace sections.
4. When working first row of each lace pattern, place a st marker between each rep of lace pattern, for ease in counting your sts.
