Quick knit scarf

The holiday season never fails to inspire me to take up some craft work. The variety of craft products and decor ideas available everywhere helps me get totally motivated. This year, unlike some years, I managed to start and finish a bunch of knitted scarves. I came across a super simple 1hr knitted scarf pattern. Loved it, and made three of them for xmas presents.


For those of you who like to knit, here is the pattern.

US size 13 needles (9mm)
Yarn - Wool Ease thick & Quick 6oz yarn 108 yards
Pattern

Row 2: Knit
Row 3: ** Knit 1, yo, Knit 1 ( you will have 19 stitches on the needle)
Row 4: Knit 1, drop yo, knit 1 (you will back to 10 stitches) **
Repeat rows 3 & 4 till the scarf measures desired length (about 52 inches or longer)
End with a 2 rows of Knit and finish.

Happy Knitting!

Knitting

When it rains it pours - That is exactly what happens to my mind when I am into craft work. Last week was the dress, and now to fit the weather change/ time change, I started knitting after almost a year. Hope my inspiration and energy lasts for another week or two till the scarf is done too.


Here is the picture of the winter hat I knit. Thanks to 'Bella Dia' blog, I used the instructions there to finish up the little pom pom on top. Neat way to make a quick pom pom for any craft.

Lets see how it goes with the scarf.. .and maybe If am crazy enough to try, I will try to make a pair of mittens too. I have never knitted a mitten before, the thought of dealing with the thumb section is not helping!
