Combine the magic of short rows with the changing colors of a gently self-striping yarn to create Ilga Leja's Bermuda scarf that is evocative of this island garden. Its colors reflect the crystal clear waters of a Bermudian sea with its shoals and reefs, its waves washing up onto a coral beach, while pastel-colored houses line the shore.

Follow the pattern to create a scarf as pictured. Or, once you have grasped the concept of the scarf’s construction, place your short-row sections as you like and design a scarf that is uniquely yours.

Sample is pictured in Kauni Effektgarn 8/2, color EF.
