Notes From the Designer:

Arden is a beaded lace scarf with a deep seed stitch border. I was inspired by the gorgeous hue "Pine" in EFA's Oasis Fingering yarn. The rich green color combined with a leafy lace pattern reminded me of the Forest of Arden in Shakespeare's As You Like It. The added beads, suggested by EFA's team member, Pam, add a beautiful accent to the lace pattern and bring out the luster of the silk in the yarn.

  • Click the Videos tab to learn how to knit and bead the lace portion of the scarf.
  • This pattern maintains a 15 stitch border of seed stitch throughout the working of the interior lace pattern. The lace pattern is a block of 12 rows that are repeated. There are a total of 3 lace pattern repeats per each RS row.
  • Should you desire a wider scarf or shawl, cast on additional sts in multiples of 11 and work those sts as an extra repeat of the lace pattern (sts 13-23 on the chart). You will need to add 4 additional beads per repeat section on the chart.
  • Gauge is not crucial to this project, but will affect yardage, size, and number of beads needed. There are 12 beads needed per 12 row repeat.
  • Because hand-dyed yarn can show natural variations in color and tone, you may wish to alternate your skeins every two rows to ensure an even blend of color and tone between skeins.
