The Design

“Crisp, clean, compelling.”

We like to think of this scarf as the perfect airplane project—both to knit and wear en route. You can style this sheer tube any number of ways; it’s just the kind of thing we love—simple, simple, simple, and all about the color!

Isager’s exquisite , a lithe, lace-weight cotton tape, spurred us to knit yet another version of this Churchmouse Classic—with some graphic stripes! See just how perfectly these quiet, fresh colors play together, using the free adaptation to our original pattern. Plus, Japansk Bomuld’s finished fabric is crisp, clean, and compelling—and the weightlessness is wonderful for our light scarf.
