The easy lace scarf pictured here was knitted using only four stitches: the knit stitch, the purl stitch, the yarn over stitch, and by knitting two stitches together.
Here is the pattern for the lacy scarf:

If you need to refresh your knowledge on the "yarn over" technique, this video will show you how.
The yarn used for this project was 50% wool and 50% silk, hand dyed by the Hand Maiden, a Vancouver dyer. It is functionally warm, and soft with the silk woven into the wool fibers. An excellent link can be found at this site; all kinds of useful information is given there about the dying of fibers.
At the Etsy shop, over 8,000 items of hand dyed wool can be found at this website: Independent Wool Dyers.
I have purchased several items from Etsy independent dyers and sellers and have been very pleased with their products. Try them out, and buy handmade!
