A finished project! A finished project! This is cause for celebration around here, that I actually finish a project (I'm more about the process than the product). This year, though, I'm determined to do more finishing.
This project: A little knitted scarf, the perfect size for our 6yo little gal. She wasn't available for a 'photo shoot,' so I threw it over the birds' cage:
You can make it, too! Here's how:
Cast on 16
Knit 4
Purl 4
Knit 4
Purl 4
Flip it over and repeat the above for 3 more rows, for a total of 4 rows.
Then...
Purl 4
Knit 4
Purl 4
Knit 4
Repeat that for 4 rows, too. Then do another 4 rows starting with knit. Then 4 more with purl. And so on until the project is as long as you like.
I used small bamboo knitting needles - size 4, I think. They were small enough that this scarf took a long time to make (I swapped this project out with faster crochet projects when I needed a break). Larger needles would be much faster.
(The blue bird was unimpressed. I couldn't keep him awake.)
If you make a project using this pattern - or if you already have - let me know! I'd love to see it.
