Description
Drawing on her Cornish heritage, Julia Day has created a scarf pattern that combines traditional gansey patterns with her own designs, inspired by the modern revival of Cornish pilot gig racing. Gig racing is a big part of island life on Scilly too, with crews out on the water most summer evenings.
The pattern includes a menu of stitch patterns that can be worked in any combination, so you can create a scarf as individual as a traditional gansey. Its sister pattern is the Ship Oars hat.
