I just finished my Halstørkle scarf from the new Wiola book, Strikk og Bruk.
This is a lovely quick knit, all in garter stitch.
I decided to use a skein of my handspun 100% angora rabit wool : A little cloud of luxury to wrap around my neck in the cold winter months.
Thanks to Kristin @kristinwiola for such a lovely pattern and to Patricia @p4chen at Knitography Farm for sharing a few details about the pattern in English.
I’m looking forward to knitting a couple of different Wiola sweaters in the upcoming winter course at Knitography Farm.
