USING MOTIFS commonly found in traditional Latvian knitting and textiles, Ieva Ozolina has created this vibrant colourwork scarf. It's knitted in the round using four contrasting shades of pure 4ply wool from Hobbywool; we have suggested a good alternative in our information panel if you are not able to find this yarn.
