Half Linen Stitch Scarf in Nakuru Designed by Kristi Porter for Curious Creek Fibers This scarf is knit in two colors of Curious Creek Fibers' Nakuru. Almost any two colors of our yarn can combine in this scarf to make a sumptuous, color-rich woven texture that is surprisingly easy to knit. One skein of each colorway will make a narrow 42” long scarf without fringe. We suggest using two of each color for flexibility in sizing and fringe.
