Scarf Pattern: Liesel
I've added the scarf pattern to my sidebar. I've also renamed it, for Liesel, who asked in the first place. I rather like her name! This is an easy lace scarf that can be knit in less than a day, and is a great stashbuster for those single skeins. It can be worked in various weights of yarn, from worsted down to laceweight. Worsted yields a very contemporary soft, chunky scarf, whereas laceweight yields a traditional delicate, airy scarf. For Liesel I used worsted. Try using 1 pattern repeat for a skinny scarf; add more pattern repeats for a wider scarf, perhaps 5 or so for a stole.
Size: One size fits all.
Yarn: 1 ball TLC Cara Mia (50% Acrylic, 19% Nylon, 18% Rayon, 13% Angora; 3.5 oz; approximately 210 yd) in #2205 Melon.
Needles: US8 / 5 mm. Adjust needle size to obtain correct gauge.
Gauge: 35 sts (edge sts + pattern) = 6.5" / 16.5 cm. To save time and ensure accurate sizing, check gauge.
Required Skills: Decreases, increases.

This is a beautiful pattern - I just discovered it via Ravelry. Thanks so much for posting it!
OMG! How very beautiful this pattern is and thank you for sharing it! I only wish I were near you so that I could take some classes.
Thank you!
this is very pretty and thank you so much
Wow, this is beautiful. I'm super excited to get some good yarn and knit this up. Especially for my friend Liesel. ;D
I love this pattern, but I definitely don't see how it can be done in a day! I've been working on it for a month. I'm not a super-duper-fast knitter, but I'm not slow either. If anyone can do this scarf that fast, I bow down to you! But, nevertheless, the pattern is wonderful and I love what I have so far!
This is a gorgeous pattern! But, I must be doing something wrong...I cast on 35 stitches and follow the pattern for the first row (after four rows of garter)and I don't have enough stitches on my needle to complete the pattern. I complete the instructions in the brackets one time, and then don't have enough remaining stitches to complete them the second time. I am following the yarn-overs and decreases carefully. I know hundreds of people have made this successfully--do you have any ideas about what I could be doing wrong? Thanks!
Thanks Andrea!
I've updated the Notes section with an explanation with regards to row 1, where a yarn-over is followed by a purl stitch. I've also called it out in the pattern right before the chart and written instructions. It's easy to miss the yarnover, so you must double-check that you end up with a yarn-over and a purl stitch!
