This dimensional pleating stitch creates a textural scarf with just 4 skeins of Staccato. The nature of pleating creates curved edges detail on the bottom while slightly scalloping along the sides. Being worked on a rather large size needle, the scarf will grow quickly and drape beautifully. Being rather mindless this pattern certainly teaches a new technique while keeping even a seasoned knitter captivated.

Originally published in January 2012 as part of Shibui Silk booklet. Shibui Silk booklet is now out of print.

Tulsa Scarf is now available as a single pattern.

Note: While scarf version in the book measures 60” and takes only 3 skeins of Staccato, the newer version has been knit using 4 skeins of Staccato and measures 77”
