Adding yet another addition to the Hygge Burst Family of patterns! I adore this scarf. Originally, I had planned on making a shawl—and maybe I still will….but I’m super glad I switched to scarf at the last minute. I’m definitely more of a scarf girlie and this one is totally scrumptious. I made this one out of sock weight yarn in Hue Loco’s newest Rosé Collection. The colours are beautifully wearable, the drape is incredible… and I can tell this will be a go-to piece in my wardrobe for the remainder of the Autumn and Winter season.

Hygge (pronouced “Hue-guh”) is a Scandinavian word meaning everything that is cozy, happy, special, warm and nice. It’s used as a noun, a verb and an adjective! I fell in love with the idea of hygge after reading The Little Book of Hygge: The Danish Way to Live Well by Meik Wiking. For me, this scarf encompasses all the warmth, coziness and happiness that you can get. I hope you all feel the same too.

When I started thinking about making another Island Time Shawl….I knew I wanted it to be a bit smaller (and more wearable with a heavy winter coat), solid coloured and well….I quickly realized I didn’t want a shawl. What I wanted, was a scarf! Hence, the last free pattern of the year: The Island Time Scarf Pattern. It’s wide enough for full coverage, long enough to wrap twice, and finished off with the sweetest triangular bottom and pom. It’s all about the details :) I chose to make mine monochrome—but the colour options are endless. It’s definitely a pattern I’ll be coming back to again and again.

So, grab your favourite DK weight yarn and lets get started!!
