This is the Montmartre Scarf. Named after the famed cobblestone streets of this district in Paris, the scarf features a textured knit/purl stitch combination resembling those bumpy streets.
Each end of the scarf features garter stitch stripes interspersed with the knit/purl stitches. The center of the scarf is knit with just the textured knit/purls. This is a one-skein project, which I knit with Wooly Wonka Fibers Freya DK, in the "Hydrangea" colorway, which has 300 yards per skein.
It would also work as a great stashbusting project and a nice unisex present to go in your holiday gift-giving bin - it's never too early to think about knitting for the holidays! Pick any lightweight DK or sportweight yarn that has a bit of a drape to it when blocked.
A big thank-you to my photographer, Dilshani Tyson, and my model, Ellen. You can tell we had fun with this shoot; Ellen's got a great smile!
