Notes From the Designer:
Arden is a beaded lace scarf with a deep seed stitch border. I was inspired by the gorgeous hue "Pine" in EFA's Oasis Fingering yarn. The rich green color combined with a leafy lace pattern reminded me of the Forest of Arden in Shakespeare's As You Like It. The added beads, suggested by EFA's team member, Pam, add a beautiful accent to the lace pattern and bring out the luster of the silk in the yarn.
- Click the Videos tab to learn how to knit and bead the lace portion of the scarf.
- This pattern maintains a 15 stitch border of seed stitch throughout the working of the interior lace pattern. The lace pattern is a block of 12 rows that are repeated. There are a total of 3 lace pattern repeats per each RS row.
- Should you desire a wider scarf or shawl, cast on additional sts in multiples of 11 and work those sts as an extra repeat of the lace pattern (sts 13-23 on the chart). You will need to add 4 additional beads per repeat section on the chart.
- Gauge is not crucial to this project, but will affect yardage, size, and number of beads needed. There are 12 beads needed per 12 row repeat.
- Because hand-dyed yarn can show natural variations in color and tone, you may wish to alternate your skeins every two rows to ensure an even blend of color and tone between skeins.

Arden
I just started knitting this. It is a nice pattern and it’s easy to follow. I am enjoying the pattern very very much, and it is looking beautiful.
Arden
I''m so excited to knit Arden. The link to buy appropriate size beads was handy. Today I found the world's smallest crochet hook, so I'm ready to begin this scarf with a forest spring green oasis fingering. First time I've knitted with beads, and I can hardly wait. Thank you for making it easy to find everything I need to make this lovely scarf. Mostly I knit for others, grandchildren, children, but this one is for me. Your website is so encouraging and enjoyable, keep up the good work.

VERY LOVELY PATTER,CAN'T WAIT TO MAKE
Tutorial
Pattern is complete and exact but being an intermediate knitter I could have used a much better tutorial. I am amazed at how the web site goes to extremes to make everything look perfect and pretty, but loses customers because the guts of the project really gets cut down to almost nothing. Fiber Spider isn't primpy and pretty but he puts 100 percent into making sure you know each and every thing you need to know. Just saying, I love the shawls but I won't be back.
Arden
Absolutely love this thankyou

Arden
Beautiful! I haven’t had time to make it yet but I can’t wait. Have to finish my previous project first,
Arden
Looks interesting and an easy enough small project Thank you
arden
have yet to start project but i am so excited for this!
Arden
I like the lace motif and the fact that this is a smaller, lighter weight scarf. If you add the beads it definitely becomes "dressier" for a special night out or event. The size means that it will be a faster project.
Arden
Weer een uitdaging, met de kralen heel mooi
Arden
Beautiful design. I love how easy it is adapt it size wise.
Arden
I have not started on this as I’m finishing a couple of projects. But can’t wait to start on this.

This is an exquisite pattern! I have never knitted with beads before, and I'm so excited about trying out this skill in making Arden. The tutorial provided by EFA makes it look absolutely doable. I'm confident I can pull this off with their help.
Arden
This is such a beautiful piece. I hope I can do it justice. I haven't worked with beads yet.
