• Tapestry needle for weaving in ends.
• Scissors.

Gauge

20 stitches and 28 rows = 4 inches in textured pattern. Adjust needle size if necessary to achieve gauge.

Abbreviations

• k = knit
• p = purl
• st(s) = stitch(es)
• RS = right side
• WS = wrong side

Instructions

Cast On

Cast on 30 stitches using your preferred method. This will create a scarf approximately 6 inches wide.

Pattern

Row 1 (RS): K1, *p1, k1; repeat from * to last stitch, k1.

Row 2 (WS): P1, *k1, p1; repeat from * to last stitch, p1.

Repeat Rows 1 and 2 until the scarf measures 60 inches in length or your desired length. Don't be afraid to try it on as you go!

Binding Off

Once the desired length is achieved, bind off loosely:

• Row 1 (RS): K1, K1 again and then pass the first stitch over the second stitch. Continue this way across the row until one stitch remains.
• Cut the yarn, leaving a long tail, and pull it through the last stitch to secure.

Finishing

Using a tapestry needle, weave in any loose ends. You can gently block the scarf by wetting it and laying it flat to dry, shaping it as desired.

Congratulations! You’ve made a beautiful cozy gray scarf that will keep you warm while looking stylish!
