It's been scarf season for a few weeks already (and not just in my chilly office). What better way to celebrate than with some free scarf patterns? Nicole offers up yet another great pattern, the Not-Quite-Straight Scarf. This looks like a great scarf to knit while watching the season premiere of Friday Night Lights (which is October 5, by the way). Allison posts a pattern for this lovely Entrelac scarf. I know I've written before about my fear of entrelac - that fear was heightened by a failed attempt to downsize the Lady Eleanor stole into something scarf-sized. Well, Allison has designed something that I might be able to handle. Might. Mary Joy's pattern for the Liesel scarf reminds me of a more ambitious Branching Out. Bonnie's Falling Water scarf is another lace beauty, worked in fingering weight yarn on size 5 needles. Do you have a skein of STR too lovely to stuff into sweaty clogs? This pattern might be just the thing.
