Fiddlesticks Knitting Florence Scarves Lace Patterns
The Florence Scarves were inspired by the design of a simple scarf seen in a shop window in Florence, Italy. The rectangular scarf is knit from end to end and has a deep, knotted fringe. The triangular scarf is started at the top and then increased to the bottom edge where it is finished with a frill. Both designs are included in the pattern. Recommended for Advanced Beginners.
These scarves are knit with size 3.5 mm to 4 mm (US 4 to 6) needles.
The rectangular scarf is worked from one end to the other in a garter stitch and lace pattern, and finished with a deep, knotted fringe.
The triangular scarf is worked by casting on two stitches and increasing on every second row to create a triangular shape, finishing with a frilly edging.
Finished Sizes
Finished size for the rectangle is approximately 13 inches wide and 47 inches long, excluding fringe.
Finished size for the triangle is approximately 56 inches across the top edge and 28 inches deep, excluding frill.
Recommended gauge
The gauge is not important, however, finished sizes will very depending on your knitting tension and on how tightly the scarves are blocked.
