Description
Let your knitting shine with the Moonbeam Scarf, a beautifully simple yet richly textured lace design by Kay Hopkins. Inspired by the quiet elegance of moonlight on water, this scarf features a nearly 3D stitch pattern created with just a two-stitch repeat—easy to memorize, yet visually striking. Worked sideways from end to end with subtle shaping through increases along the neck edge, it creates a long, narrow silhouette that drapes effortlessly. Whether styled loosely around the neck or layered for extra warmth, Moonbeam is a versatile piece perfect for everyday wear.
This scarf is designed in Cumbria Fingering—a blend of fine Merino for softness, wool from the English Masham sheep for a beautiful heathered color, and Argentinian mohair for strength and luster. The lightweight warmth of Cumbria Fingering makes it especially suited for scarves, ensuring both comfort and drape in the finished piece. With a luxurious hand, this yarn elevates the simplicity of the pattern into something truly special that knitters will cherish for many years.
Yarn:
The Fibre Co. Cumbria Fingering (60% Merino wool, 30% Masham wool, 10% mohair, 300 m (328 yd) per 100 g hank) in shade Grasmere Vale – 1 hank.
