The Thistle Scarf is a Lace scarf knit using 2 skeins (44 g) of Luxurious Buffalo Down (100% Buffalo, 155-160 yds per 22 g) from Cottage Craft Angora. The yarn is a natural, chocolate brown and incredibly soft.
The thistle pattern starts small near the end of the scarf and grows larger as it approaches the centre of the scarf, and then transitions to a diamond leaf pattern.
In spite of its lacy appearance, the “halo” from the yarn makes this a nice, warming scarf for those cool spring/fall evenings.
Blocked dimensions:
l: 190 cm (76″), w: 25 cm (10″)

The yarn can be purchased from her web-site for $20/skein (as opposed to the regular price of $22) with a discount code that can be obtained from me with the purchase of the pattern.
