Late-summer Colorado skies streaked with clouds inspired this honeycomb scarf with its curving blue lines on a white background. To create contrast between the cells and the outlines, Anu used a thick blue yarn that she doubled in the weft and used single in the warp.

Weave alternating blocks of honeycomb using two pick-up sticks to create the wispy look of cirrus clouds against a crisp blue sky. The scarf’s warp comprises two yarns, a thinner white wool and a slightly thicker blue silk/linen blend. Anu used the same yarns for weft, doubling the blue yarn to further outline and enhance the honeycomb cells.
