Simple Lace Scarf
Simple Lace Scarf
AKA: Moira Littlelace
Yarn: Louet Gems Pearl 100% Wool Fingering Weight
approximately 700 yards
Needles: US 5's
I started with straights and switched to circulars.
Finished Measurements:
10.5" by 92"
Pattern:
*K2, YO, K2tog, K2, P2*, repeat from * to * for desired width,
end with K2, YO, K2tog.
Repeat this row for desired length.
What would I do different?
Use a laceweight yarn. The fingering is a bit heavy.
Make it shorter. 72" to 80" would be better.

Pat - I like the scarf - it looks wonderful. I've been looking for an easy lace like pattern for the lace weight that I bought this spring - I may give this a try!!
Thanks for sharing.
AHH - college apartment hunting - we too are in that mode. Molly is going back to UofO in September. I'm glad she'll be on her own - but a little nervous too!!
Beautiful scarf! Will you do another with the modifications? This is an Amazing Lace encouragement post -- go- go - go -- LACE!
Exquisite scarf! Lovely model, too. If I were going to make changes, I would use the same size yarn, but go for bigger needles. In fact, it looks so pretty, I may actully have to try some lace. Pat, you temptress, you make it look easy! I'll regret this, I know I will. . .
So nice, Pat! And the perfect model, no less.
Your shawl and model are beautiful! Love the color.
Beautiful scarf, beautiful daughter. How richly blessed you are:D
Oh, this is so gorgeous, and it fits your daughter perfectly! Great job!
Just lovely, Pat! Congrats on completing it...I know you're pleased...
(((hugs)))
Both of your works of art are beautiful :o)
Ahh what a pretty shawl and beautiful girl. I'm sure the yarn you selected is nice and drapey yet adds just the touch of warmth needed for a cool evening if we don't soon collide with the sun and fall winter and spring do actually return. Love the color too! :)
Wow, that is just BEAUTIFUL. I don't think the fingering weight looks to heavy at all -- in fact, I think I would opt for fingering weight if I were to do this pattern based on those lovely pictures alone.

I am so inspired by Moira Littlelace. I am going to try it! My very first lace. It will be an August attempt! Thank you for the pattern. THe photos are really great too Pat. I kind of like the fingering look.
