Front Porch Fern Leaf Lace Scarf Knitting Pattern from the ~Sweet Tea Scarf Pattern Collection~ by Lavender Hill Knits The Sweet Tea Scarf Collection includes patterns inspired by all the things I love about living in the South ~ grand front porches, lush trees and plants, summer rainstorms, misty spring mornings in the Smoky Mountains, rolling hills of fall color and sippin' sweet tea year-round. The scarves in this collection can be worn indoors or out and are equally at home with a t-shirt and jeans as a skirt or dress. They can be made using light wool sock yarn or try using fingering weight cotton.So gather your yarn and needles, a tall glass of sweet tea and settle into a comfy rocker on the porch...happy knitting! The Front Porch Fern Lace Scarf was inspired by the relaxed lifestyle of the South. Sitting on a grand front porch, dotted with lacy ferns that gently move in the breeze under a large ceiling fan. It knits up quickly and is a great take-along project to work on while watching the kids at soccer or baseball. Or when you are waiting at the doctors office or when traveling.

If you find some yarn you really want to use, begin knitting the scarf and work a couple of repeats of the Fern Leaf Edging to check your gauge and to see if you like the yarn.
