SCARF KNITTING PATTERN

Cast on

Loosely CO 144 sts using the long-tail cast-on method or the one you prefer.

Join in the round being careful not to twist the sts (place a marker if you wish to mark the beginning of the round).

I prefer using the invisible join method:

Step 1: CO 144 + 1  extra st (a total of 145 sts).

Step 2: Slip the first st purlwise from the left needle to the right needle.

Step 3: Bring the second st from the right needle over the top of the first st (the one, that we have passed from the left needle)

Step 4: Put that slipped st from the right needle back to the left one ( 144 sts left). Pull on the strands to tighten.

Scarf

The scarf is worked in English rib.

Set-up round: *Yo, Sl1, K1* to end.

Round 1: *P2tog, Yo, Sl1,* to end.

Round 2: *Yo, Sl1, K2tog* to end.

Repeat rounds 1 and 2 until the piece measures approx. 20 cm (7 ^3/4”) or your desired length.

Bind off

Bind off sts loosely in pattern. If your bind-off edge looks too tight – use a size larger needles.

Step 1: P2tog, K1, bring the first st over the second one.

Repeat step 1 until you have 1 st left, cut the yarn leaving a 4″ – 6” tail to weave in later. Draw the yarn tail through the last st and pull it snug.

You will find a detailed tutorial on how to bind off knitting HERE.

Finishing

Weave in all loose ends.

Wet block the finished item, this process transforms the stitches, makes them look smoother and neater.

Simply soak the knitted item in lukewarm water with some soak wash for 10-15 minutes. Lift it from the water and gently squeeze the excess water out. Next, lay it on a clean towel (make sure it doesn’t transfer color), and roll it up to remove moisture.

Pin the item to a blocking board or lay it on a clean and dry towel (that doesn’t transfer color) and let it dry. Your knitting will look much better after this.
