Beginner Striped Scarf Free Knitting Pattern

/

I had so much fun designing the Stunning String Learn To Knit Series of patterns for the novice knitter. It gave me an opportunity to create beginner friendly classic designs that would inspire new knitters. This Striped Scarf is great for any level knitter - especially those exploring color-work. Great for the guys and the gals and and you can make it in your favorite team colors as well.

Supply List:
3 Skeins  / 215 yards per skein Worsted Weight Yarn
COLOR A: PEWTER, Stunning String Legacy Worsted Yarn
COLOR B: FUNKY FUSCHIA, Stunning String Legacy Worsted Yarn
COLOR C: DOVE, Stunning String Legacy Worsted Yarn
US 10.5 / 6.5 mm knitting needles (Circular or Straights as your preference)
Tapestry needle to weave ends
Tape Measure

Stitches Used / Abbreviations:
K – knit
BO – Bind Off
CO – cast on

NOTES:

Finished Measurements of your fabric:
Width – 6 “ / Length – 68” Before Blocking
Width – 7 “ / Length – 96” Before Blocking

  • Wet blocking serves this scarf best and you will notice the stitches truly settle and it will add substantial length

  • I did not carry the yarn up as I changed colors so the stripes would be “clean” on the edges

  • I worked in the ends as I went along
