Willow Scarf
The Willow scarf by Brooknit Bonneterie is our version of the famous Scandinavian trendy skinny scarf for an elevated and sophisticated style.
Warmer than the classic silk square, more elegant than a chunky scarf.
It is designed for everyone: short enough to wear as one wrap around your neck and long enough to double the rounds!
The WILLOW name comes from the shape of the leaf of the weeping willow tree, a symbol of grief, resilience, and immortality.
It is available as a kit (with or without needles), or hand-knitted.
If you are not a knitter (yet), or not ready to become one (yet), we've got you!
The hand-knitted version is "made to order".
No stock! It is knitted, just for you, right here, when you ask!
We will confirm the timeline within a day after the order.
If you want an estimate before you place the order, reach out!
As a kit, to be knitted, it is an ideal project, using basic stitches and a few special designs, slightly more technical.
You will learn how to manage increases, decreases, i-cord or smooth edges.
The pattern is written in a single size and knitted flat.
You will find the written instructions and access to quick videos to support your learnings or refresh your skills.
The pattern and sizing are designed based on the Brooknit Bonneterie's yarn (100% Merino superwash, worsted weight). Needles US size 8 / 5mm.
Choose from the 7 colors available!
Which needles? In a nutshell:
A - Aluminium - Advanced
B - Bamboo - Beginner

Inside the Kit

- Explanations and pattern documents: all the instructions to follow step by step, and QR codes to access video-tutorials for specific moves.
- 1 tapestry needle. The small essential to finish the item by weaving the ends.
- 1 marker row counter. So helpful to track your progress.
- 3 stitch markers; just in case!.
- 1 cloth label to be sewn.
- 1 no-iron fabric label to add the name (ideal to put on the back of the cloth label)
- 1 little card for a keepsake or if you knit and gift!
All items are stored in cotton drawstring bags. The larger one, containing the yarn, can also be used as a wash bag to protect the item in the washing machine.
Care
Good news: the Super Wash 100% Merino is machine washable! Pick the delicate or wool program, use a wool detergent, cold temperature.
Just lay flat to dry (preferably on a towel) and VOILA!
Gravity on wet wool is not a friend here and will cause distortions in the garment.
For small stains, you can gently use a little bit of soap and water.
And remember, Merino wool is a natural fiber and you don't need to wash often. Unpleasant odors can naturally fly away by simply airing out the garment for a couple of hours (weather permitting obviously!).
