The Florence Scarves

The Florence Scarves were inspired by the design of a simple scarf seen in a shop window in Florence, Italy. The rectangular scarf is knit from end to end and has a deep, knotted fringe. The triangular scarf is started at the top with two stitches and then increased to create a triangular shape. At the bottom edge it is finished with a frill. Both designs are included in the pattern.
