VERY EASY SCARFLET


VERY EASY SCARFLET

This Very Easy Scarflet would make a great first project for the new knitter. 

No remarks about my turkey neck please. 

I’m knitting a bunch of these and the Fold Up Cuff Cap as sets for my charity giving this fall.


SIZE:
Ends = 7 inches
Ribbed section = 3.75 inches
Length = 32 inches

NOTES:
  1. Read instructions through before beginning.
  2. To make a wider scarflet cast on additional stitches in increments of 4.
  3. To make a longer scarflet work rows 9 and 10 until about 1.5 inches shorter than desired.
  4. Scarflet in photo was knit with Red Heart Super Saver in Buff Fleck.  There was plenty in the 5 ounce skein for the scarflet and cap.  If you make it wider or longer it will take more yarn…duh!

MATERIALS:
Worsted weight (4) yarn approximately 2.25 ounces (120 yards)
US size 9 (5.5 mm) and 10.5 (6.5 mm) knitting needles
Tapestry needle

INSTRUCTIONS:
With 10.5 needles cast on 26 sts.

Rows 1-8: K

Switch to size 9 needles.

Row 9:  K2, P2 across, end with K2.
Row 10:  P2, K2 across end with P2.

Repeat rows 9 and 10 until scarf is about 31 inches from cast on edge, ending with row 9.

Switch back to size 10.5 needles.

Knit 8 rows.

Bind off and weave in ends.
