This Scarf design is a part of the Bendigo Project 2025 - Stripes collection.


It explores texture, colour and direction and has taken inspiration from Entrelac knitting but with a fresh spin!

The modular construction and changing colours and textures keep the knitting interesting all the way through. 


Design notes


This scarf is worked flat and has an interesting modular construction. It consists of 4 triangle shaped sections (Triangles 1–4) that are worked in a modular fashion.

As the final step, the scarf is finished with a narrow reverse stockinette stitch edging that is worked in the round with sts picked up along the perimeter.
