Well, of course the PATTERN has a finite size based on the length of the quote. But the thickness of your yarn also makes a big difference (as does the needle size). This pattern knit in DK will probably be at least five or six inches shorter than this pattern knit in worsted. Standard length for a scarf is 70". The picture looks like worsted to me. You can find superwash merinos in DK, but it's difficult; you might opt for an acrylic blend if you're looking for something affordable. Hard to find a lot of natural fibers that are machine-washable.
