The Florence Scarves

The Florence Scarves were inspired by the design of a simple scarf seen in a shop window in Florence, Italy. The rectangular scarf is worked from one end to the other in a garter stitch and lace pattern, and has a deep, knotted fringe.

The triangular scarf in the same garter stitch and lace pattern is worked by casting on two stitches and then increasing to create a triangular shape, finishing with a frilly edging. Both designs are included in the pattern. NOTE: Fiddlesticks Knitting patterns are charted. Recommended for Advanced Beginners.
