Yarn for Marine Scarves
There are 3 yarns that have been approved for making the Marine scarves.
There is no need to worry that these are not 100% cotton or wool. They are needed most when the Marines and Sailors are on down time or under the wire (back at base).
The pattern calls for 2 strands to be worked together. The ideal yarns are the Rococo and the Desert Sand. But for anyone that has trouble knitting or crocheting with a textured yarn like the Rococo may use the Lace Caron and the Desert Sand. Please DO NOT use all three yarns together.
See below for the Knit and Crochet Pattern used for the Marine Scarves. And the shipping instructions are below too.
Marine Scarf Pattern
The Scarf is made holding 2 strand together. The scarf needs to be 7 inches wide and about 42 inches long when finished.
As Quoted by the designer; "The scarf is worked with either Rococo + Desert Sand or Caron Lace + Desert Sand"
