Two-Tone Twill Scarf by Churchmouse Yarns

Our love affair with linen stitch continues—this time using two high-contrast colors for crisp zigs and zags or two closer colors for tonal shading. We started with a soft fingering-weight yarn, and then took it all the way to a lace-weight yarn to mimic the breezy sigh of a fine woven scarf.
