This Scarf Knitting Pattern is a delight. I have such a fun time knitting entrelac; I love the effect it gives, especially with yarns that have transitions in their color.

This Scarf is designed to pair with the Stephanie Hat & Stephanie Wrist Warmers though it will look equally nice with the articles in the Alexander set as well.

When I heard someone comment that they wished the back was as pretty as the front of their entrelac pieces, I came up with two scarf designs that I hope fill that order. This is one of those. After creating these patterns, of course, I had to come up with some accessories to accompany each!

The scarf is thick and warm (the fabric is doubled the full length). I find it fun to twist around and arrange so all textures and colors are showing at any one time.

Work your provisional CO directly onto one of your 40" needles, let it hang out in your work while you continue on... knitting with the other needles. A little stockinette, a little garter, followed by a bit of entrelac, a little more garter, followed by a fair bit more stockinette before making the whole thing into a tube with a three needle bind-off. Pick up Sts and close off the ends of your tube with some garter stitch.
