Here's a new version of the same scarf from the last post.
This one was made with a sample of Universal Yarn. I think it is this yarn, but I can't be sure. I've had the yarn for quite a while, and I know that the name of the yarn changed after I received the sample.
Simplest Scarf Ever!
Cast on 16 sts.
Rows 1-4: Knit across.
Row 5: K3, (YO, ssk) across to last 3 sts, k3.
Repeat Row 5 until scarf is .5" less than desired length.
Last 4 Rows: Knit across.
Bind off all sts.
How easy is that?! I used one skein and size 10 needles for this scarf. In the scarf in the previous post, I used 2 skeins and size 8 needles. This scarf is a good length for a child - about 44 inches long and 4.5" wide. I just worked until I had barely enough yarn left to work the last 4 rows and bind off. You can make this scarf with any yarn and appropriately sized needles.
It was really a stretch for me to work on this while I have another project on my needles, but this pattern was perfect for knitting while conversing at Thurs night knitting - doesn't take a lot of concentration, but has enough interest not to be boring.
I'm still working away on that lacy something, too. It's a s-l-o-w process.
More stash enhancement to report. Occasionally when I tech edit, I collect payment in yarn. DD chose the Mary Walker Phillips colorway of Schaefer Yarn's Chris for me to make her some new winter accessories. There is enough yarn here for something for me, too!
I love the colors - they remind me of the colors of a stormy sky. After 2 days of 108 degree temps, a storm would be most welcome in these parts!
I'll stay inside and knit!
