One of the coldest apartments that I ever lived in was in an otherwise delightful town called Beckenham in Kent, down in the South-East corner of England. The flat seemed pleasantly cool in the summer when I moved in, but when winter arrived in full force then it was seriously cold.
I rapidly learnt that good quality knitwear was essential to keep the winter chills at bay. So, what better name for this new knitting pattern than the Beckenham Scarf!

The pattern features a strongly graphical design which is just perfect for a man's scarf. The stitch pattern is called Seeded Chevron and has been taken from our book, Reversible Knitting Stitches. This is a wonderfully dynamic stitch and the scarf pattern includes three different versions to give a slim, medium or wide scarf.
The slim scarf has deep "V" pattern shapes which gives a modern, dynamic feel to this version. This could be emphasised by using bold colour choices. The medium scarf has a slightly wider chevron patterning while the Wide Scarf has a low-rise chevron design giving a pleasing, classic result.
All of these can be worked in either a soft worsted-weight merino wool or a super-warm chunky yarn, giving lots of different options.

All of the scarf options are completely reversible so it doesn’t matter which side shows as the breezes start to blow.

I shall be back next time with a blogpost addressing the age-old question: How long shall I make this scarf?
Until then – Happy Knitting!
