Sorgenfri scarf is knitted back and forth on a long circular needle in structural knit. The scarf
can be tied once around the neck and is suitable for both children and adults.

Choose the right materials: I recommend choosing natural material for your scarf. Wool is naturally temperature-
regulating and is suitable for both children and adults. Wool fibers are elastic and will keep your knitted scarf in shape.
Wool in combination with other natural materials such as cotton, silk or linen also works well.

INTRODUCTION: Always start by reading through the entire pattern before you begin. You may want to make a tension
swatch to make sure the final result turns out as you want. The specified needle size and yarn amount is for guidance
only and will vary depending on your knit tension and choice of yarn.

Maintenance
Washing: Wash the garment in a tub of lukewarm water. Use soap that is suitable for wool. Move the garment lightly in
the tub for a few minutes. The garment should not be left to soak. Squeeze out the soapy water without twisting the
garment too much. Rinse the garment in a tub of clean, lukewarm water for a few minutes. Squeeze out the water
without twisting the garment too much. Lay the garment flat to dry, for example on a towel. If you have a dryer, you
can tumble dry the garment for 2-3 minutes before laying it flat to dry.

Pilling: Wool is one of nature's finest fibers and needs a little extra care and maintenance. After using the garment for
a while, you might find small balls “pills” of fibre on the surface. Pills are caused by loose fibre tangling together as
areas of the garment are rubbed during wear. Pills can easily be removed by hand before washing. Gentle ironing after
washing will help prevent pilling.

Storing: Woolen garments should always be stored clean. A dirty garment is more likely to attract moths. If you are
storing your garment for a longer period, then do so in a clean storage bag in a clean cupboard.
