There’s a well-known episode of Doctor Who in which Rose Tyler is forced to be separated from the Doctor forever sigh.

In this episode, she stands on beautiful, jagged rocks that border a smooth beach and the sea. I noticed, as I’m sure every knitter did, that Rose was wearing a gorgeous pair of knit fingerless gloves, but no scarf!

This scarf is both inspired by the stunning landscape of that scene – the jagged stones, smooth sand, and water - and also would have been perfect for Rose to wear, in her namesake color of course!

Make this scarf for yourself, and go on an adventure, or make it for the Rose Tyler in your life!

I created a scarf that would be effortless, comfortable, and would work well transitioning from Fall into Winter. To make this scarf both lightweight and warm, the lace is knit in a tube and then the ends joined together – you get floofy warmth without a whole lot of bulk.

**Note: the recommended yarn (Lion Brand Wool Ease) is listed in many databases as "Aran" weight, but is actually a light worsted weight or dk. Testers who used heavy worsted or Aran weight yarn found the scarf much thicker/heavier than anticipated.
