Our most loved holiday traditions are decorating the Christmas tree and driving around town to see all the houses lit up for Christmas. The dazzling multicolor light strands are my favorite as they shine with cheer and light up the night. The Twinkle Lights Scarf lets you capture the spirit of the season with bright colors that sparkle and glow against a dark background. Written for three different yarn weights (fingering, dk, and chunky) you can choose your favorite and knit your own twinkling lights this year. Watch the full overview video on my YouTube channel for advice on keeping a loose tension, fixing snags, and fixing mistakes.
