Who doesn’t love a snuggly double-knit dragon wrapped around their neck, protecting their wearer from the cold? Great for that post-holiday stash of yarn, the Cloud Dragon Scarf MKAL will keep you warm on the coldest of days.
Suggested yarn and yardage
You will need 550-600 yards of main color (MC) and 550-600 yards of contrasting color (CC) in a fingering weight yarn. I used Malabrigo Finito, but any fingering yarn should work. This scarf would look lovely with a color-shifting yarn! 3.25 mm needles are working great for this weight of project, you could use a smaller needle if desired. Anything larger and you may run short on yarn.
Yarn yardage is given for fingering weight, however, you can make this scarf in whatever weight yarn you desire. Please keep in mind that the larger the yarn the larger the final product will be, I have a test knit in worsted weight that is nearly 13 inches across and would work well as a table runner! Worsted weight yarns will require more yarn. I would recommend knitting the test swatch to calculate how much yarn you will require for different types of yarn.
Gauge is not very important in double knitting, however, ensure that you keep a consistent tension throughout the project.
Approximate Finished Measurements
Knit using fingering yarn - 9.5” x 80”
This is an intermediate level project, previous experience with double-knitting/chart reading is recommended.
