Molten - Truly Myrtle - PRINTED PATTERN

Molten is a fantastic shallow-triangular shape that’s easy to wear and fun to knit.

She’s named for the fiery drama of the lava flows that once poured from the mouths of volcanoes sprinkled throughout the long islands of Aotearoa New Zealand.

She’s dramatic and rich and will glow when she’s knitted in striking yarn and wound around your neck as a snugly scarf, or draped gracefully across your shoulders.

Using just two skeins of fingering-weight yarn, Molten offers the perfect combination of relaxed knitting as you work down her garter stripe section and joyful entertainment through her lovely lace border.

Enjoy simple, familiar stitches as you work and finish with a pop of colour along the elegant i-cord edge.

Molten includes charted and written instructions and is ideal for both experienced knitters and adventurous beginners.
