Stay Extra Toasty Scarf (ENG)
The Stay Extra Toasty Scarf is a celebration of comfort and texture. The stitch pattern is fully reversible and inspired by the look of waffles—which also happens to be where the name comes from. It’s double the width of its smaller sister, the Stay Toasty Scarf, making it ideal for wrapping up in style—and perfect for wearing as a cozy hooded scarf, too.
The scarf is worked using only knits and purls, making it both relaxing and engaging to knit up, with a rhythm that’s easy to fall into. The soft structure adds a lovely squishiness to the fabric, while the extra width brings a bit of drama and warmth. Sleek I-cord edges frame the scarf for a polished, timeless finish that elevates the whole piece.
Difficulty: Advanced Easy ★★☆☆
