Ravelry Project link
Yarn: Cascade 220 (1.5 skein)
Gauge: 4.5 st/in
Needles: Size 6 Addi Turbos
Length: 62 in
Width: 8.5 in
Husband: 6’4″ tall…long torso.
So, this was really a VERY enjoyable project. The pattern is one that once you see how it’s made, you dont need to consult the chart again. It made a very comfortable and enjoyable TV-viewing project.
These scarf patterns are really neat. They begin with a provisional cast-on and then you knit it to the length you want and finish one side. Then, you pick up the stitches from the provisional cast-on – knit the neck for the length you need it, and then knit the next side the same length as you made the first side. Very slick.
So, since they’re kind of modular, you can adjust where you need the length and come up with a custom fit scarf. You can see the neck part in the post below where I’d run out of yarn.
The skein of yarn that I got to finish it with – is very close in color – and with all the texture in the scarf, any difference in color just kind of looks like a shadow cast.
So, I’ll likely just leave it this color. The dyepot continues to collect dust.
