Crane Beach Scarf

A lightweight triangular scarf, ideal for exploring different color combinations or for showcasing that special skein of yarn. Simple and versatile, this piece works beautifully year-round. **Construction** Worked flat in one piece, from tip to tip, the straightforward construction makes it a relaxing, meditative knit. Shaping is worked along one side to create the triangular form, while a built-in i-cord edge provides a clean, tailored finish. **Finished Size** Approximately 38.5 inches (98 cm) long and 12 inches (30.5 cm) high after blocking.
