“Harmonize a hundred colors. Or quietly play tone on tone.”

Linen stitch has a way of harmonizing even the most disparate colors. Our friend Mimi Hepler first created this scarf to use up all her precious Koigu leftovers—18 different colorways! So for our scarf we chose three skeins of Koigu that combined as many different colors as possible. But it’s equally beautiful in subtle shades. In fact, we haven’t seen a bad combination yet! That’s the magic of linen stitch. Heck, it’s even beautiful on the ‘wrong’ side.

Shown in Madelinelosh Woolcycle Sport

We knit the Seamless Poncho in collaboration with Madelinetosh, choosing their 100% upcycled wool, Woolcycle Sport! Soft to the touch, easy to care for, this sport-weight yarn makes a lightweight, yet warm poncho. And those hand-dyed colors are so lovely!

Knitter's notes

The woven appearance of this fabric has intrigued us from day one, even as knitting this scarf can be slow and contemplative. Don't be tempted to rush through this project. Building this scarf, row by tiny row, is so satisfying. Also, fixing mistakes in linen stitch is no one's idea of fun. Slow and steady for a gorgeous result.

While the scarves in this pattern were knit with Koigu KPPPM, don't feel limited to using only fingering-weight yarns. If you want to try this with a different weight of yarn, as a rule, begin swatching using a needle 3 to 4 sizes larger than what is recommended on the yarn's ball band. Once you're satisfied with your swatch, calculate the number of stitches you will need for the scarf length you want (have it be an even number) and go!
