Half Linen Stitch Scarf in Nakuru CCF Nakuru

Half Linen Stitch Scarf in Nakuru
Designed by Kristi Porter for Curious Creek Fibers
This scarf is knit in two colors of Curious Creek Fibers'
Nakuru. Almost any two colors of our yarn can combine
in this scarf to make a sumptuous, color-rich woven
texture that is surprisingly easy to knit. One skein of each
colorway will make a narrow 42” long scarf without
fringe. We suggest using two of each color for flexibility
in sizing and fringe.
