I knocked this scarf up last year as a test for suitability for beginning lace knitters taking part in the All Shawl Together KAL. It made a useful stash buster – well, not so much a bust as a tickle, really – just 40g used.
Almost weightless, so a good hair-coverer

Very repetitive and mindless drop stitch pattern but worth the perseverance for a very wearable accessory. It offers so much warmth for so little weight – I found that I wore it almost constantly through Christmas and well into January to warm my ailing throat and chest.
I would certainly make another.
