Hello and I hope everyone is having a good start to the week 💙 I'm here to formally introduce my new (and free!) pattern, the Labradorite Scarf.
The Labradorite Scarf was designed to show off the colour gradations of Dyed in the Wool yarn 💙 Swipe to the next image to see a closeup, then swipe again to see the Labradorite colourway that the scarf was named after! This is a beginner-friendly, straightforward pattern which incorporates three colours and weights of yarn, blending them together through alternating combinations of knitting two strands of yarn together. With so many possible combinations, it is a wonderful stash-busting project.
Yarn:
C1: Spincycle Yarns Dyed In the Wool, 100% wool, 200 yards / 182 metres per skein, shown in “Labradorite,” 3 skeins
C2: Worsted weight yarn, 255 yards / 233 metres (I used Woolfolk Far in “05)
C3: Fi*****ng weight yarn, 95 yards / 87 metres (I used Woolfolk Sno in “01 + 02”)
Right now this pattern is available on Ravelry as a free download, but I am also in the process of re-designing my website to allow downloads directly from there. I know that a large number of people have been experiencing significant problems with the new Ravelry design. If you would like this pattern but cannot use or don't want to use Ravelry, please let me know and I'll email it to you directly. You can DM me your email, or email me at [email protected] 💙

The third photo shows a loose skein of yarn that is primarily blue but incorporates contrasting shades of brown. The yarn is draped over cut slices of wood.
