The incredible Oswald Scarf is designed by Florence Spurling of Florence Spurling Studio. We don’t provide the pattern with this kit, but you can click here if you’d like to buy it from Forence.
The Oswald Scarf is a truly a beautiful and unique pattern, featuring a fantastic woven-effect motif. Knit up in squishy Yarnadelic Worsted – this beauty will fly off the needles.
Oswald is a wondrously generous sized scarf featuring a two-colour checked pattern knitted with the intarsia method. Inspired by woven fabrics, the ‘wrong side’ of the intarsia join is displayed to give the impression of top stitching on a tailored garment. Blocks of squishy moss stitch are integrated into the checked pattern, adding texture and dimension. Once the scarf is knitted, multiple strands of yarn are interlaced through the outside edges of each moss stitch block, which are then trimmed to create a fab fringe. Yarnadelic Worsted gives this scarf crisp stitch definition and contrast.
You’ll find the pattern from Florence herself here.
