I always need to wear scarves in summer<\/strong> because of the airco in stores, cars, rooms, etc. The more lightweight the better! I recently stumbled upon a variation of the puff stitch called the ‘blocked puff stitch’. I decided to make a scarf with this fun stitch and 2 balls of Katia Seacell Cotton<\/em>. It creates a beautiful texture and can be used for many projects such as hats, shawls, bags, blankets, potholders… Scroll down for my free photo and video tutorial<\/strong> of the Blocked Puff Stitch Scarf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Blocked Puff Stitches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The abbreviation is usually Bps<\/strong>. Blocked Puff stitches are a variation of puff stitches and have a more open structure. You can also make staggered, stacked, zigzag and braided puff stitch rows. Even though it is not a difficult stitch, you might have to practice getting the right tension. On my blog you can find a detailed photo and video tutorial<\/a> of this stitch. Below you can find my free pattern<\/strong> to make a scarf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
