The smallest, most portable piece in the collection — and free. Hazel takes the same centre-out idea as the Season's End Shawl and pares it back into a narrow slip-stitch rib scarf with defined I-cord edges, knit in unspun Nutiden held double.

Made for the first cool walk, the bag packed for later, and the leftover plate too beautiful to disappear into a cupboard. A relaxed, beginner-friendly knit — and a perfect introduction to the Ulven Knit way.

Construction

Worked flat from the centre out, with I-cord edges. Increases run along one edge up to the centre point, followed by symmetrical decreases back down, keeping the slip-stitch rib pattern throughout. Adjustable in length.
