Zephyr Scarf
​​​Interweave | Urban Knit Collection: 18 City-inspired Knitting Patterns for the Modern Wardrobe, 2016

---

Surrounded by a seed stitch border, the pattern in this scarf found its inspiration in the wrought iron doors of a public school in Romania. The Greek key pattern lends itself to this type of repetitive pattern. Even after it was transformed into fabric, it reminds me of the iron gates guarding doorways throughout downtown San Francisco.
