Materials Needed

  • Yarn: Worsted weight yarn, 400 yards (we recommend a rich, deep forest green for a touch of natural elegance)
  • Needles: US 8 (5mm) knitting needles
  • Gauge: 18 stitches and 24 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 48 stitches onto your knitting needle. Ensure your stitches are not too tight to allow for flexibility in your scarf.
  2. Row 1 (Right Side): Knit 2 stitches (K2), then repeat the following pattern: *Purl 2 stitches (P2), Knit 6 stitches (K6), Purl 2 stitches (P2), Knit 2 stitches (K2); repeat from * until the end of the row.
  3. Row 2 (Wrong Side): Purl 2 stitches (P2), then repeat the following pattern: *Knit 2 stitches (K2), Purl 6 stitches (P6), Knit 2 stitches (K2), Purl 2 stitches (P2); repeat from * until the end of the row.
  4. Row 3: Repeat Row 1.
  5. Row 4: Repeat Row 2.
  6. Row 5: Knit 2 stitches (K2), then repeat the following pattern: *Purl 2 stitches (P2), Cable 6 Front (C6F), Purl 2 stitches (P2), Knit 2 stitches (K2); repeat from * until the end of the row. (To perform C6F, hold the next 3 stitches on a cable needle in front of your work, knit the next 3 stitches from the left needle, then knit the 3 stitches from the cable needle.)
  7. Row 6: Repeat Row 2.
  8. Repeat Rows 1-6: Continue repeating these six rows until your scarf measures approximately 60 inches or your desired length.
  9. Bind Off: Once you reach your desired length, bind off all stitches loosely to maintain the elasticity of the scarf.
  10. Finishing Touches: Weave in any loose ends using a tapestry needle to give your scarf a polished look.
