The Design
“A delicate whisper of a scarf.”
The relaxing rhythm of stockinette stitch creates a simple, supple fabric—the perfect canvas to play with degrees of sheerness. Adding a feminine eyelet lace edge keeps the knitting interesting. With long tapered ends, this scarf’s shape lies somewhere between half moon and triangle. Started at the top edge, the knitting gets faster and faster as you go!
The Demi Lune Scarf is as light as a whisper knit in Rowan —a favorite go-to in the shop. It’s delicate and fine with a lovely halo and subtle fuzz. Strong but sheer, weightless but warm—perfect for the pretty Demi Lune!
Pick up the pattern below and choose a color–you'll need 3 skeins to make the size shown. To see all the colors of Kidsilk Haze, head over to the Rowan page.
