Bärentatzen Scarf

This scarf combines the fluffiness of brioche with the elegance of lace - and because it’s brioche, it’s reversible.

To knit this scarf you need the following knitting skills:

- knitting brioche (in one color)

- a certain stamina while knitting - this is knitted in lace weight yarn and brioche, i.e. it grows extremely slow

As to the name, the pattern reminded me of a certain type of piped biscuits that are tradional here, called Bärentatzen (which literally translates to bear claws, but American bear claws are a different bakery item). The bottom photo shows Bärentatzen.
