INSPIRATION

Rib Welt scarf is a fresh twist on a classic. It’s a shallow triangular scarf that starts out in 2x2 rib gradually increasing and then decreasing worked in welting. Perfect for the couple of skeins of that special DK yarn you have been keeping for something special!

The pattern includes two sizes and instructions to modify your scarf. Due to half of the scarf worked in rib and half in welting, it’s slightly shorter (2”-4”) on the welting side due to welting naturally “shrinking” back.
