The Design

“Cast a spell on your needles!”

Perform a bit of hocus-pocus with our Magic Three-Yarn Scarf. Here’s the spell—if you start with three yarns and change yarn every row, the next one will always be waiting right where you need it—as if by magic! Because you’re changing yarns every row, you get a beautifully integrated fabric with no wrong side.

For this version of our Magic Three-Yarn Scarf, we used three different yarns with slightly different textures from Madelinetosh, Rowan, and Wool and the Gang: A.S.A.P., a super-bulky-weight, single-ply yarn that’s spun from superwash merino wool that’s hand-dyed in a range of playful solids and variegations; Big Wool, a bulky-weight, 100% merino wool that’s an easy-to-work-with softy; and Take Care Mohair, a worsted-weight blend of mohair, wool, and polyamide with the fluffiest of haloes!

Choose from our select colorways, or create your own! You'll need one skein of each yarn listed below.
