Checkerboard Lace Scarf - the purl bee

http://www.purlbee.com/checkerboard-lace-scarf

This color is Sasparilla. (I used two and a half skeins. If you want to cast on 10 fewer stitches or make your scarf 12 inches shorter than this one, 2 skeins would be enough.) U S # 7 n e e d l e s , s t r a i g h t o r c i r c u l a r. I used a 24 inch S k a c e l A d d i L a c e needle and highly recommend it. The sharp point of Addi's lace needles makes lace knitting a whole lot easier!
