Pink Fairy Scarf
Lightweight yarn and a pretty pastel shade pink work together in this knitted scarf pattern to create a summer friendly accessory worthy of any fair lady. Part of what makes the Pink Fairy Scarf special is its construction. Knit in two separate pieces, the scarf is sewn together at the end of the pattern so that each piece can feature an attractive, scalloped edge. No matter what color you choose to make your scarf in, this pattern will become a treasured project for years to come.

I'm making this right now, the only thing I would change is to use a 3 needle bind off for the two halves.

When I first read the pattern I was wondering why two parts. Upon reading it again it makes sense. Keeping the first part on a spare needle also makes sense so when you finish the second half you can just graft the two sides together. I like working with small needles. This will make a nice lacey pattern which you can wear year round. If you use a nice metallic shimmery yarn it would be a beautiful addition to a dressy outfit. The stitch pattern is not difficult. Thank you.
