Knit a scarf that looks like it came straight from a vintage wardrobe.

The Vintage Scarf is a beautiful triangular knit with delicate openwork details and a bold contrast border. Wrap it around your shoulders, tie it under your chin, or wear it loose for an easy pop of color.

This is the kind of project you’ll enjoy making and feel proud to wear when you’re done.

Designed for advanced knitters, the pattern gives you clear, row-by-row guidance so you can follow each part of the scarf from the first stitches to the final border and blocking.
