Another Christmas make, and this time the request was for a scarf in charcoal greys.
I made a Rivers scarf using Malabrigio Washted in ‘Cirrus Gray’ (shade 845). This is a superwash Aran weight merino yarn and is absolutely lovely to work with. I used a 5.5mm hook and started with a a chain of 226 stitches.
The scarf is 9 ‘ripples’ wide and took just over 200g of yarn. This turned out to be a bit of a challenge as I had only bought two hanks of yarn, and being hand-dyed it proved to be quite difficult to find a compatible third hank. I have made a mental note to myself for the future to over-buy yarn and return anything unused if necessary. I’ll let you know how I get on with that!
