DROPS Scarf and Gloves in Alpaca. Goes to local yarn shops and Home Depot - Shifting Sands Scarf. Shifting Sands scarf ©2006, www.grumperina.com, copyright details at bottom of page. I created the Shifting Sands pattern to replace my dad’s Sharfik, which had the great misfortune of meeting the washing machine in a most intimate setting.

Although I cannot take credit for the name, it is very appropriate: the cables swish and swoop, meandering from one edge to the other. The resulting texture is that of sand, shifted over time by wind or water. It is an element of nature familiar to both me and my dad, having grown up on the coast of the Black Sea. The texture of the scarf is created by thousands of small cables. Thousands? Adjusting the width of the scarf according to your yarn and desired size is easy: the pattern repeat is 5 stitches wide and 4 rows high. Click here for another close-up view of the texture.
