Scrapbook Neckerchief

**DESCRIPTION** The Scrapbook Neckerchief is a colourful small project which will brighten up any outfit. My aim with the Scrapbook series is to enable you to utilise DK weight scrap yarns from your stash by incorporating them into a playful patchwork design with a simple, slip stitch check pattern. The neckerchief is knitted in 3 sections, 2 of which are picked up from the first. Decreases are used to shape the front sections and an applied i-cord is knitted around the full circumference. **SIZE** One Size **YARN REQUIREMENTS** I've chosen a soft DK weight cotton in a standard yarn weight to make it easier for people to dig into their stash and find suitable alternatives. Below are approximate yarn requirements if following my colour placements. **Rowan Summerlite DK (50gm, 130m)** A Seashell 466 x 20 grams B Plaster 452 x 30 grams C Khaki 461 x 30 grams D Mocha 451 x 10 grams **SUGGESTED NEEDLES** 3.75mm [US 5] straight needles 2 x 3.25mm [US 3] double pointed needles
