Sky Scarf was published in 2015 - one of my first patterns! A third-party company picked it up and it has been unavailable since then. I've now fixed up a few of my 'rookie' mistakes and brought it here to the blog.
The main part of the scarf is long and thin, designed to be looped three times around. This pattern is great for stash busting; but please, keep the same yarn thickness and fibre if you are substituting. Motifs can be permanently attached by sewing in place, or if you’d like to alternate them, add snap fasteners to the rainbow and/or a brooch back to the sun. Main Scarf and Rainbow motifs are worked in rows, and the Sun motif is worked in the round.
A fun idea could be to match the scarf to the sky outside, as you make it, if you plan to work over a few days!
