FAQs
How is the scarf constructed?
Linen stitch is easy to learn: a series of knit and slipped stitches. The scarf is knit lengthwise, using a new color for each row. The tails are twisted into fringe — no weaving in ends!
I see a lot of different scarf colors here. What's up?
Occasionally we create different colorways, for the season or just for fun. We strive to create colorful, balanced colorways that look great in this stitch pattern. We've been creating these kits for a while, and have a sense of what works well. Some of the photos you see here give you a sense of how colors work together in the linen stitch pattern. Batch 1 is our classic, primary rainbow colorway.
Can I create my own kit?
The pattern is available separately, and you can choose your own full skeins of Malabrigo Worsted. You'll need at least 3 skeins of yarn to have enough to knit the scarf, though the more colors you choose, the more colorful your scarf will be. We do not sell individual partial skeins like those we use in our kit.
