This technique is like the ones that are in the book I reviewed “Knitting Never Felt Better.” Jussi is from Auckland : New Zealand and shows us step by step how to make this amazing scarf.  Please visit and you will be able to see just how this is done and maybe you will try one yourself. Shibori Felting Techniques
I knit and will try this, it look like fun.
I found these comments and question on Jussi’s blog: ohhhoo!!! I found your blog via Craftgossip
I saw some gorgeous scarves like this at a museum store, but $300 was WAY out of my price range. I don’t knit well, but was studying them to see how it was done. I am so happy to see my ‘guess’ was right! I am gonna spin some silk/merino fine yarn, then try to do a simple knit and try it for myself!
thank you!!!!

I was wondering how many skeins of the Handpainted lace weight yarn you used to make this scarf, or, in general, how many yards it takes.
Thanks for this tutorial. I can’t wait to try it!

I will try to find out how many skeins of yarn was needed to make this scarf.

Beautiful soft lace hand dyed yarn.
Ideal for knitting diverse kinds of garments: shawls, light autumn/spring garments, socks, etc.
100% Pure Wool. Yardage: 950 yards per skein.
I would not think that more than one shein would be needed 950 yards in plenty of wool 🙂 Jussi, is this correct?
