Witton Scarf
The Witton knitting pattern is for a minimalist style, charted scarf design. It can be knit it in any yarn and in multiple ways: as double-knit, as stranded colorwork (the longest float is only three stitches wide, lending this design to this style of knitting quite well), or as a knit-purl pattern.
This pattern uses a main and contrast yarn. Suggested pairings as follows: Malabrigo Silkpaca Lace “Frank Ochre” SA035 with “VAA” (Verde Azul Amarillo) SA051, “Renaissance” SA691, or “Zarzamora” SA863.
The sample shown in the photographs was knit using a stockinette stitch for the side and bottom edging, however this has a tendency to roll, so it is suggested in the pattern that this be worked in a moss stitch, although a garter stitch edge would work just as well.
The chart included shows the entire repeat and then is broken down into 15 separate sections for ease of knitting.
This pattern is recommended for the experienced knitter, but written for the adventurous novice.
