Poem River

My favorite scarf that I've ever designed, Poem River combines two of my own stitch patterns: herringbone ribbed lace borders flow into a waving ribbed lattice.
It's also reversible, and the stitch patterns look complicated, but are easy to work.

Finished Size: 11" / 28 cm wide by 80" / 2.0 m long. Both length and width are easily modified by working more or fewer pattern repeats.
