Scarf Patterns

Long Rainbow Scarf

November 20, 2016 by Jen

One of my local yarn shops carries YarnTrekker’s Detour Minis—cute little 52-yard skeins of yarn in a variety of colors. I love them, but what are you going to do with the bitsy things? Knit something in a lot of colors, naturally. I usually avoid colorwork (I hate weaving in ends), but a rainbow scarf […]

Blogathon Lace Triangle Scarf

September 10, 2010 by Jen

blogathon lace triangle scarf knit pattern

When I was in Europe last year, lacy crocheted scarves were all the rage. They were typically worn bundled up under a coat, making the exact stitch pattern impossible to discern; but that hardly mattered, I could tell it was some kind of lace and they looked great. I imitated the style previously with the […]

Lacy Bowknot Scarf

September 3, 2010 by Jen

lacy bowknot knit scarf

I really need to stop impulse-buying yarn. Once again I had to come up with a plan for one skein, this time a gorgeous ball of silk/wool DK. A yarn this soft and lovely—and expensive—is made to be shown off, and a little scarf/neckwarmer is a great solution. The sparse yardage could be stretched a […]

Easy Leaves Scarf

July 6, 2010 by Jen

easy leaves scarf knit pattern 1

After a lace project went horribly wrong, (no, I can’t tell you about it, it’s too traumatic) I wanted to do an easy bit of lace. And, it being summer at the time, I wanted small and light, too. I had recently impulse-bought one skein of a cotton/tencel blend, so I swatched a few different […]

Openwork Rib Scarf

December 18, 2009 by Jen

knit openwork rib scarf pattern 1

This openwork rib stitch has a nice blend of lace and structure, which makes it great for a scarf. The stitch is easy to memorize, too. I used some leftover yarn to make a small scarf, of course you could easily make a longer scarf by using up more yardage. Finished Measurements: 32 inches by […]

Scrunchy Rib Scarf

December 13, 2009 by Jen

scrunchy rib knit scarf pattern

This pattern was borne out of pure laziness. I wanted to knit some kind of texture pattern, but I didn’t want to have to work at it, and I wanted as much plain knitting as possible. I worked a garter rib, and then made it even easier by working knit-2/purl-2 instead of knit-1/purl-1 on the […]

Lace Rib Neckwarmer

November 26, 2009 by Jen

lace rib knit neckwarmer

Neckwarmers are great for a few reasons. They’ll stay neatly in place even in a strong wind. They knit up quickly, and they’re a good way to test out a new stitch before committing it to a large project. Since they don’t require a lot of yarn, they’re good for using up stash, or make […]

Bulky Reversible Cable Braid Scarf

November 20, 2009 by Jen

bulky knit reversible cable braid scarf

This bulky knit scarf is so big and thick it’s almost like a wrap! For a scarf of this size, it’s a relatively quick knit, and it’s super warm. The cable braid is reversible, so it’s exactly the same on both sides. A white scarf is always flattering on any woman, but the pattern works […]

Amsterdam Lace Scarf

September 13, 2009 by Jen

Amsterdam lace scarf in pink

On vacation in Europe, I admired the lacy, crocheted scarves popular with young women in Amsterdam, which they wore bundled up under their coats. I bought some pink wool in a yarn shop there and decided to improvise a similar version in knit. Stuck on a train, with no patterns or internet access, I used […]
