Very pretty! I can’t wait to try it
Kris:It’s a fun simple pattern.Immediate, in its gratification.Enjoy!~A
I keep losing a stitch on row 4. I’ve tried 3 times and I can’t see where I’m going wrong. Any ideas?Victoria
Could it be that you’re adding an extra k2tog at the end?~A
nope, I was forgetting the last yo!!I don’t think I’m going to get 64″ out of one skein of yarn though
I’m glad it’s straightened out.As for scarf length – I don’t know what yarn you’re using, but one skein of Suri Merino (BSA) got me quite far…with tassels, too.I did block it though, so that helped.
I’m definitely not going to get 64″ with one skein. I’m over half-way through the skein, and only at 17″. Maybe all skeins are not equal?
Thank you for this pattern. I mostly crochet, but I got the urge to knit something for my mother. I made a stockingette stitch scarf for her, and now I am ready to try this…
I’m glad you’re attempting the pattern. It’s not quite as quick as crochet, but it does a pretty decent job.

Hi Angela!,
I was looking for a pattern for a scarf made out of chunky wool and I found your pattern! How fun is that?! Small world! Thanks for the help!
Jenn
Ha! That’s awesome. How did your craft sale go?
Very nice! I’ve tried a pattern a little different and the result is great!!! Go for it girls! Keep sharing… 🙂
Hi. Made a start on this last night using chunky fake mohair. Such an esy pattern, iv been knitting most of the day and the scarf is nearly finished, an nearly as tall as me haha. Much tanks for shaing. xxx
How did you make the fringe look like that. I love the pattern and I’m half way finished and thinking ahead. This is the first time that I have made anything with fringe, and this fringe looks as if it has a pattern to it.
Thanks for the pattern. I love it as a scarf and as a blanket.
Thank you so much for sharing, a great pattern and I’m grateful for your generosity 👍🏻
