We can't get enough of broken garter stitch! It's such a satisfying and straightforward technique! Columns of easy knitted garter stitch are "broken" by an occasional purl stitch, making this scarf a simple and relaxing way to play with syncopated color and texture!
We've translated this addictive stitch pattern into a new Felted Tweed Broken Garter Scarf that plays up the classic colors and rich textures of Rowan Felted Tweed. This soft, unisex scarf is a lightweight yet warm accessory that you'll reach for years to come!
Felted Tweed has been a staple yarn for color-loving knitters for decades! This DK weight blend of wool, alpaca, and viscose has a soft hand that blocks beautifully. Its slightly felted texture imparts knitted fabrics with a mesmerizing depth of color enhanced with a scattering of tweedy flecks.
We made ours with 5 balls of Felted Tweed. Each section of alternating stripes features contrasting colors within a balanced color family to create a striking finished look.
To knit this scarf, you'll need:
Finished Measurements: 11" x 64".
- 5 skeins of Rowan Felted Tweed - we used Alabaster, Duck Egg, Carbon, Boulder + Ginger.
- The pattern is free with your yarn purchase! We'll email you the pattern when we ship your order.
