Indonesia
The interlocking stitch pattern of the main section recalls green layers over
the expanse of a field, while the ruffled edging, with its pronounced knit-stitch
ridges, isolates the individual rice stalks.
The main section of the scarf is worked first in one piece and can serve as
a scarf in its own right, without the edging. The ruffled edging, in the Accordion
Pleat Stitch, is picked up and knit along each long side for that added touch
of interest as it frames the face.
The sample pictured is knit with Fleece Artist Woolie Silk 3-Ply,
65% wool, 35% silk, (230 m./252 yds. per 100 g. skein), colour “Moss”.
