Knitting for a European Winter Part 2: Fun Pink Scarf



Hello from Amsterdam!

I'm very excited to blog about this pink scarf that I made for myself because I am very excited about the scarf.  I've been wearing it everywhere, and not just because it's cold outside.  This scarf is so fun and cutesy and soft and warm and I made it for myself all by myself.

I found the free pattern at The Tricksy Knitter which is a super cute and informative website that I just happened to stumble across on google.

Things you will need:

  • Two or three balls of bulky yarn

  • Size 8 (5.0mm) knitting needles

  • Scissors

  • Needle for weaving in the ends


Directions:

  • Get them right here from The Tricksy Knitter herself.

Here are four fun ways to wear this fancy-dancy scarf when you're walking across European bridges :



In addition to being pretty, the stripes of garter stitch help keep the scarf from rolling too much, which is what happens when you make a whole scarf out of stockinette stitch (like the one that I made for my boyfriend a few posts back).


I hope you're staying warm wherever you are out there in the world.

Tot ziens!
xoxo
