Tree Bark Scarf


© Tree Bark Scarf

This scarf is inspired by 211 ladder & rib swatch
from "Stitchionary 1: Knit & Purl" by Vogue Knitting.
The original swatch does not have a balanced ladder
and repeats making it less appealing for a scarf.

100% Baby Alpaca, 110 yards/50 grams,
Hand wash and dry flat.
Color # 0294/Bark, Lot # 79125,  4 x Skeins

This tank top was salvaged from an existing dress project.
I cut and unraveled across the waist and finished off the bottom hem.
The top features a sweetheart bust line and a v-back.
I use the diamond leaves swatch
from "Stitchionary 5: Lace Knitting" by Vogue Knitting
for the lace part of the tank top.
