Feather and Fan Scarf
Designed by Faith Schmidt
Feather and Fan, a traditional lace pattern in hand knitting, is fun to work on the knitting
board. Once you’ve worked through the stitch pattern a couple of times you’ll be surprised at
how easy it is. Choosing a self-striping yarn accentuates the stitch pattern, but it would look
beautiful in a solid color as well.
