The Strongest Shape Scarf

The first in my series of no fluff patterns is a triangle shaped scarf. Made out of cotton,  it's the perfect cover up now that the summer nights are getting cooler and we move (slowly) into Autumn. If you're lucky enough to be in the Southern hemisphere it might be the perfect scarf to lead you out of the colder days and into the warmer ones too! I knitted up this scarf from cotton wool that was in my stash, sound tracked by a great podcast by Isy Suttie. She is joined by Eliza and Abigale who discuss their work as part of the Lives Not Knives charity. You can find out more about the podcast and the charity here . After creating this scarf using the no fluff stripe pattern I donated the money I would have spent on wool (had I not used my stash) to Lives Not Knives.  I'd encourage you to use this pattern more as a recipe - substituting in a wool of your choosing and adding additional colour blocks to make your triangle the size you want it to be. I hope you like it! Happy ...
