Every once in a while a design takes over my life. This is one of those times. Even though I had many other things I needed to be doing, once I started this project I could not put it down. My friend Amanda, who has a wonderful sense of color, asked if I would design a pattern using her gorgeous yarns. How could I say no?
Mormorio is knit from end to end in garter stitch. Then the edge is picked up and knit with an undulating ripple pattern.
A wildly variegated yarn is paired with a subtle semi-solid to create this stripe and lace scarf.
Here are the details:

I can’t wait until the weather turns cold enough to wear this! I will certainly have it on during Rhinebeck…
This is lovely, I really like it, it’s just the kind of thing I wear!
Beautiful! Perfect combination of color and stitches. My mind is already in my stash looking for yarn…
Beautiful pattern. Just looking at it brings a smile to my face.
Striking pattern and yarn. What a spectacular combination if design and color!
Absolutely beautiful.
