A Churchmouse Yarns and Teas Pattern - Striped Linen Stitch Wrap & Scarf (PDF)

Our fervent love of linen stitch continues. The eight-color wrap and four-color scarf take on a convincingly woven look. Knitted length-wise, with knotted self-fringe, they look like they’re right off the loom. The ‘wrong’ side has a more knitterly seed stitch look that’s gorgeous, too. Seemingly random striping sequences are quite forgiving—if you run out of a color, just throw in another!

We’ve designed the Wrap & Scarf for a DK-weight gauge yarn.
