Unisex Scarf

Hi everyone! I have finally completed another one of my knitting projects. My boyfriend asked me to make him a plain black scarf. I searched the internet and came across the Montana Scarf from LoopKnits.

Here is the link to their website for the free pattern

For this pattern I used size 4 worsted weight yarn about 300 yards.
- size 10.5 knitting needles
- I knit this scarf straight using circular needles... just remember to turn your work over for every row!! :)

The pattern:
1. Begin by casting on 42 stitches... or any multiple of 6 to achieve your desired width
2. Row 1 is k1 p1 (repeat until the end)
3. Row 2 is k3 p3 (repeat until the end)
4. Bind off in a normal k1 p1 and weave in ends!

** Measurements**
- Using my pattern, the scarf is 7 inches width by 58 inches length. Since the scarf has ribbing, the width stretches up to 14 inches.

I love this pattern, it is so beautiful and after I was done making it, I decided I really liked it!! I would definitely recommend this scarf for boys and girls! :)




 
the scarf worn long around the neck went past my waist for a reference of how long it was!



Cute for boys and girls!! 

Happy knitting!! Xoxo

Update!! I made this scarf again using size 4 worsted weight yarn and I cast on more stitches to make the scarf wider. The scarf wasn't as long as before but I used leftover yarn that I had! Just showing you guys how pretty this pattern truly is!!

Xoxo
