There are lots of scarf knitting patterns, but only a few are simple to make but can add a distinct sparkle to your wardrobe.
This pattern is knit in basic garter stitch and can be completed in just several evenings (or afternoons for that matter).
Irresistible regardless of the color, you'll be surprised at how many different looks you can achieve by just making slight changes on the pattern or yarn.
As you become skilled at knitting, you can experiment with the pattern to allow your personality and taste to show in your end project.
You'll need: 1.
180-yard yarn (preferably with glitz) or you can choose to use 2 pieces of yarns that are held together as 165m mohair blend coupled with 180 yards of thin or glitzy yarn 2.
Size 11 US needles 3.
Tapestry needle Gauge: The gauge is not really critical, but it's generally 4 inches = 12 stitches in garter stitch.
Size: The finished piece is 132x18 centimeters.
Let's start! 1.
Begin by casting on 20 stitches, leaving approximately a 10 cm tail.
2.
Work in garter stitch (done by knitting every row) until such time that the scarf measures approximately 132cm.
3.
You can continue knitting until there is just enough yarn to secure the yarn tail and bind off the stitches.
(this is approximately 6 inches plus 4 times the width of the piece).
4.
Loosely, bind off the stitches.
(I recommend that you match the elasticity of the cast on edge).
5.
Cut the yarn.
Don't forget to leave a 10cm tail.
6.
Thread the tapestry needle.
To secure the piece, weave through the bound off stitches.
You can weave in the tail in the same manner.
