Asymmetrical Knit Scarf – Edison Park
By request, Edison Park is the knit version of my Norwood Park pattern, and features the same, asymmetrical, V shape. The lightweight fabric and eyelet edges are equally at home running errands in jeans or dressing up for a party. Wrap it for warmth, or for more dramatic flair, wear it draped over your shoulders with the long, tapered ends hanging down at the back. You can even hang a small charm from the picot at the center! The free pattern includes both written and charted instructions.

Second, except for the foundation row and the edge stitches, you’ll…

Free Pattern – Plaid Scarf
Last year, at the Knit and Crochet Show, I took a class called “Mad About Plaid” taught by Michelle Hunter of Knit Purl Hunter. She showed us this brilliant way to create a plaid design with a combination of knitting and crochet techniques.

The knitting part of the pattern is available as…
