Making a scarf fits into everyone's budget, so why not splurge! The projects are easy to make in a weekend
.or even in just a few hours. You won't spend time fumbling with intricate instructions, because most of the patterns are easy to understand making scarves the perfect traveling project.
You'll find scarves for cold weather wearing, and to accessorize your wardrobe in style.
It is an american book and has a good section on yarns weights so that you can purchase alternatives from your local yarn store, though many of the yarns recommended are available in the UK. We particularly love the pretty, simple shaped scarf, which takes only one ball of Kidsilk Haze (number 27 on the photo index) and the cable drop stitch warmer (number 43 on the photo index), which can be knitted in Rowan Cocoon (2 balls) as a yarn alternative.
