(Free Pattern)

Supplies

• Knitting Tool
• Crochet hook
• Yarn/tapestry needle
• Measuring tape
• Suggested Looms and yarn
  • 3/8” Peg Spacing, Use 50 pegs. Use 1 strand of yarn.
  • ½” Peg Spacing, Use 36 pegs. 1 to 2 strands yarn held together, knit a swatch to determine.
  • ¾” Peg Spacing, Use 24 pegs. Use 2 strands of yarn.

Yarn:  Suggested yarn; 1 skein or less each, White eyelash (any short eyelash type) and Buttercream Luxe Craft Angel Hair, White,  #5 weight, Pounds of love tan and bright red #4 worsted. This is a good stash buster scarf!

Gauge:  Use a measuring tape.

Size:  Will vary with loom used. Knitting a swatch is a good idea to test gauge with yarn chosen. You will need extra width to allow the scarf to roll.

Pattern Notes

• Scarf is knit from the beard to top of the hat.
• Scarf is designed to roll, giving it its’ skinny look. If you do not want your scarf to roll, add edge sts. Please note that the scarf will be much wider than photo if you do this as it will lay flat.
• Both ends are gathered to help scarf roll inward.
• Experiment! This scarf also looks great knit as a tube scarf, use the same number of pegs but knit in the round.
• The e-wrap knit stitch is not recommended for this pattern.

Pattern

Foundation row:  Before casing on cut a length of yarn twice as long as pegs used. Chain Cast on with white Buttercream (see above for yarn amounts). Thread yarn through tapestry needle, take yarn through loops on all pegs, then leave hanging. This yarn will be used to pull scarf in at the bottom.
