Litany of Secret Creations, Part
Litany of Secret Creations, Part 3
This is the last of my Christmas gift scarf pictures. This was the one that was the simplest and went together the most quickly. However, it is probably the one I am most proud of because it combined two things:
- I learned how drop stitches work
- I "designed" the scarf all by myself
I wanted Mom to have a Carribean cruise scarf, but I didn't have enough time for an EROS style scarf, so I used some Stacy Charles Rondo, color 610. This is what the scarf looked like:
And here is a close up detail of the "stitch pattern" that I used:

The "pattern" is very simple. It can be almost any width that you want it to be, for size 15 needles, somewhere between 12-15 stitches cast on would be good. Then:
- Knit 4 rows
- (K1 YO2 ) for as many stitches as you have
- Knit 6th row, dropping YOs as you go
- Continue until scarf is desired length, end with 4 knit rows
Mom liked it, and it did come out light and airy!
