Jojoland Amazon Lily Scarf Knitting Pattern

Jojoland Amazon Lily Scarf

What is Being Made

The Amazon Lily Scarf is a lace knit scarf designed by Lijuan Jing with finished dimensions of 48 inches long by 8 inches wide. This downloadable knitting pattern creates an elegant accessory featuring decorative lace patterning worked across the scarf body with coordinating seed stitch edging on all four sides.

Craft and Techniques

This project is created using the knitting craft with lace and flat knitting techniques. The scarf is worked flat on straight needles rather than in the round, making it accessible for knitters of various experience levels. The pattern is rated as Easy skill level, making it suitable for beginners who have mastered basic knitting fundamentals.

Stitches Used

The Amazon Lily Scarf incorporates several essential knitting stitches to create its textured design:

• Knit (k) and Purl (p) stitches form the foundation and create textural contrast
• Yarn over (yo) stitches create the decorative lace holes characteristic of the pattern
• Knit two together (k2tog) decreases used in lace shaping
• Slip, slip, knit (ssk) decreases that pair with yarn overs for balanced lace design
• Seed stitch (alternating knit and purl stitches) creates the textured edge border
• Slip stitch (sl) used at the beginning of rows for neat edge finishing

Pattern Structure

The scarf begins with a 4-row seed stitch edge setup, followed by a 12-row repeating lace pattern that is worked 25 times to achieve the finished length. The pattern concludes with a 4-row seed stitch edge to match the beginning. Cast on requires 44 stitches, and the pattern includes detailed row-by-row instructions with a stitch chart for visual reference.

Materials and Gauge

The Amazon Lily Scarf is knitted using Jojoland Rhythm yarn, a 100% wool fiber. The sample shown is made in color RS42. Three balls of yarn are required, with each ball containing 110 yards, providing 330 yards total yardage. Knitting is worked on U.S. size 7 (4.5 mm) needles. The pattern gauge is 5.5 stitches by 6.4 rows per 1-inch square, which should be verified before beginning to ensure proper finished dimensions.

This pattern is provided as a downloadable PDF that includes both written row-by-row directions and visual stitch charts for the scarf body lace pattern and the seed stitch edge. The PDF format allows for easy printing and reference while working on the project.
