Travelling Roses Lace Scarf

As promised, I have written up the pattern for the scarf I made for the International Scarf Exchange, henceforth dubbed the Travelling Roses Lace Scarf. The pattern is available in PDF format here. There is also a link on the sidebar. Here are the details:

Finished Measurements

7" x 43" pre-blocked

8" x 66" blocked

Materials Yarn: Misti Alpaca Lace Weight yarn, Red – 1 skein (yes, it really did only take 1 skein, with some left over!)

Needles: 2.5mm needles (I used Knitpicks US1 needles, which are 2.5mm. You could always use 2.25mm (a standard US1) or 2.75mm (a standard US2)

As this is the first design I've ever written up, I'd love to hear what you think!

    That’s a gorgeous pattern! It makes me want to stop knitting all my current projects and cast on for one of these! *laughs* I think instead I’ll just put it on my list of things to knit. :D

    Thank you for the pattern – found via Ravelry. Just want to point out that the legend doesn’t match the chart in the pdf. I’m pretty sure I can figure out what it should be, but some may not.

    This is a beautiful pattern and I’d like to give it a try. However, the chart seems to have an issue. The symbols ON the chart do not match the symbols in the legend. The legend symbols are all Greek letters.

    thanks again for making this available!

    Okay, fixing the last problem created a new problem! The symbols have now been fixed, so everything *should* be fine now. So if you downloaded the pattern and things are messed up, please try it again.

    I may just be a bit silly since I’m not the most advanced knitter, but the first row of the pattern requires 61 sts to work but I have only 51 cast on?

    If you are counting the symbols in the chart, remember that the o is not a stitch on your needle but one that you create by YO.
