    About

    I was researching my mothers’ ancient Galway name of Lynskey, and found that it was derived from the Gaelic word Loingseach, meaning Mariner. The fact that I happen to love rib patterns, and Fisherman’s Rib in particular, meant I had to make this loop scarf/cowl/snood to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.

    It is knit in a gorgeous Donegal Aran Tweed yarn. The design is knit with two colours in the round, but gives you fabulous vertical stripes, completely reversible. The result is a brioche fabric look, but with half the work. It can be worn as a scarf looped over the neck; doubled up on itself to ensure you’ll never be cold; or doubled up and worn.
