Barbera Scarf
From: $108.00
INSPIRATION
The Barbera Scarf was designed with Thea’s husband in mind.
Barbera scarf- a bit of warmth without bulk. This size tucks into a coat or wraps around the neck perfectly for a tailored men’s accessory. There are notes in the pattern to create a larger version for a big, cozy, wide size with lots more squish and fabric.
CONSTRUCTION
Gorgeous diamond cables in a center panel, bordered by simple twists and garter stitch. A deep color and lots of texture make for a stunning accessory, but it’s the size that he was quite specific about. As shown, Barbera lies smoothly under an open coat, and wraps once around the neck without any extra bulk. It’s incredibly soft and eye-catching, but can be simply worn. However, when I make this for me, it’s going to be bigger and squishier and won’t subtly tuck into anything – so I’ve got panels that are easy to tweak, and notes are in the pattern on where to add that width!
YARN CHOICE

YARDAGE PER SIZE
Barbera scarf has been designed in two lengths:
Short Size: 9 x 56”/22.75 x 142.25cm size shown. This size is designed for minimal bulk when worn. It can be wrapped once and tucked in a buttoned neckline or worn hanging in an open jacket.
Big Size: 12 x 56″/30.5 x142.25cm option. The added width in this size provides a more oversized, squishy wrap.
Each bundle contains the yarn you will need to complete your project.
The pattern is not included but you can find it on Ravelry here.
NOTES
On our baby yak colors, we only dye on the natural basis we have. No bleaching or decoloring. Each color will vary from season to season, so depending on the shade of the natural fiber, making it darker or lighter. This is the beauty of working with natural fibers. The shade of the sample you see photographed, will not always correspond to the shade we have in stock or at your local LYS.
