Inspired by the sea and ripples in the sand, Aegean is a long wavy scarf that can be worn mid-season when the wind suddenly gets chilly.
It combines several simple stitch patterns and turn them into a seemingly intricate result.
Aegean is a fun scarf to knit that will keep you entertained without being difficult. It’s the perfect scarf to dip your toe into lace, and it will teach you the foundation stitches that you’ll use over and over in lace knitting.
With its waves, spikes and color changes, the Aegean scarf promises to be equally fun to wear. Time for a day on the shore!
