Fawn's yes Scarf
Materials 2 skeins sport weight yarn, approx 370 yards Notes: 1. You may use the same yardage of baby or sock weight yarn to produce a more open and lacy fabric 2. Purchase additional yarn if you want to make a longer scarf. Size 10 circular needle, 24" long or size 10 straight needles 10" long Gauge: None Finished Size: Approximately 1 2" wide by 60" long. Instructions: Note that this scarfis knitted in two halves and the pieces are grafted together at the center. Cast on 49 stitches very, very loosely. For cast on consider using size 11 or even 13 needle. Be sure that the space between each cast on stitch is about the same as the needle diameter. A very loose cast on is required to allowing stretched out points on the bottom edge. Across the first row, work four repeatsof the Fawn's ye patern shown on page 2. Work alleight rows of the pattern. Repeat the eight rows one more time fora total of 2 repeats. Now begin working the T rellis framed Leaf pattern across all stitches. The number of stitches will not change. Repeat the twenty rows of the Trellis Framed Leaf patterns two times. At this point, begin working the nglish Mesh Lace pattern. Again the number of stitches will not change. Continue working nglish Mesh Lace until ou have reached desired length of the scarf, oruntil you have about one and one-half yards left in the skein of yarn you started knitting. Do not cast off. Placelive stitches on a hold and set aside. Now knit up the second half of the scarf, exactly like the first half. When the second half is complete, graft together the live stitches of the two halves and darn in tails. Grafting instructions are included on page 3 of this pattern. Tails willshow much less,if you split the yarn into plies and darn in each ply separately. Wet the scarf thoroughly (orwash) and blockaggresively, pinning out the points of the Fawn's yes to emphasize the zigzag edge.
