The Design

“Stunning in its simplicity.”

We asked our friend, Catherine Lowe, for a simple, ‘get acquainted’ project that would give knitters a taste of her meticulous methods and bespoke yarns. This stunner of a free pattern was the result! The riveting texture of seed stitch combined with Catherine’s precise finishing techniques makes for a scarf that’s exceptionally beautiful in its simplicity.

The Seed Stitch Triangle Scarf is knit holding Catherine Lowe’s together with her . The resulting fabric is truly astounding! Lace-weight Silk Mohair 1 adds a soft, gentle halo to the graceful, drapey fabric of fingering-weight Merino 3. Together, these yarns have stable stitch structure, wonderful integrity, and stunning stitch definition. This triangle scarf will retain its shape and appearance through countless wears and washes.
