Season 18 Yarn

The original scarf was knitted with a chenille or suede DK weight yarn in the following colors:
  • Dark Purple
  • Marroon/Burgundy
  • Brick Orange
(Refer to the photos page)

Lion brand makes a really nice suede yarn that works perfectly for this scarf! It looks truly authentic and feels very soft and luxurious. You can see the colors here. The burgundy is not exactly right, but it works. The colors to use are:
  • Orange: "Spice"
  • Burgundy: "Garnet"
  • Purple: either "Eggplant" or "Fuchsia" (Eggplant is more accurate but Fushia looks "nicer.")
I should tell you that chenille and suede are very difficult to knit with. (chenille especially!) You can try them but if you want an easier knitting experience, go with a wool or acrylic yarn instead.

The best wool yarn that I could find for this scarf is the "Encore" series by Plymouth. The yarn is "worsted" weight and 75% acrylic and 25% wool. Although this is not an ideal kind of yarn the colors are very good. They are:
  •  #1922 - (orange)
  •  #999 - (burgundy)
  •  #960 - (purple)
You could substitute just about any yarn, as you only need three colors. It should be sport, DK, or Worsted weight.
