the knitting bug begins

Ok so last winter I looked at the POUNDS of cheap red heart yarn I had sitting around the house and decided I HAD to do something with it. I made a scarf for myself. kids tried to steal it so I made some for them too. 3 entire finished projects. Then I made matching hats on a round knitting loom, no pics of those though.

Super simple pattern

size 10.5 needles 40" round

4 colors red heart worsted weight yarn (you select) 1 verigated, 3 solid

Cast on 150 stitches using the 2 strands of 1 solid color strand of yarn (A) leaving at least an 8 inch tail (you wont be weaving this back in).

Knit 3 rows leaving 16 inches of unknit yarn at each end (this will become a fringe).

Drop one strand of the solid and add the verigated and color (A), leaving at least an 8 inch end. Knit 5 rows.

Change to color (B) and keep the verigated. Knit 5 rows again leaving the ends.

Change to color (C) and keep the verigated. knit 5 rows again leaving the ends.

Change back to 2 strands of a solid color (either (A) or (C). Knit 3 rows.

Change to the verigated and color (C), knit 5 rows.

Change to the verigated and color (B), knit 5 rows.

Change to color verigated adn color (A), knit 5 rows.

Drop verigated and use color (A) to knit 3 rows.

Cast off

39 rows total.

Over hand knot strands at ends for fringe.

this will give you about a 5 ft long scarf.

Heres what they look like.

This is camo colored verigated with beige, sage and black solids.

this is red white and blue verigated with red, blue and white solids.

This is mine. lavendar, sage and blue verigated. with cream, lavendar and white solids. The lavendar is a bobble yarn.
