He jumped at the chance, and after consulting with him on colors (green or fall colors) this is what I came up with. It’s a fairly simple stockinette stitch created on the yellow long loom (18 pegs each side). The scarf used a twin yarn, so it’s very thick (as the image will show).

Variated scarf for Jeremy

  • Loom: Yellow KK Long Loom (38 pegs)
  • Yarn: Red Heart, Fleck (5oz), worsted medium; Red Heart, Multi (5oz), worsted medium
  • Stitch: Double-yarn basic stockinette stitch

I made this scarf during Sunday afternoon. It started off two-times prior to me finishing it, as I tried different stitches for this scarf. Each time I’d get a number of rows finished and then realize that I didn’t like the look, so I unraveled it (called frogging) and started again.

It wraps my neck a couple of times.

I’m not completely happy with the bind off (right side), but it gives me something to work on and perfect.

The image on the left was taken with a flash, and there was no flash used on the right. The first end has a slight “brim” of six rows (folded) for weight. I’m still trying to ascertain how I will do the same effect at the other end.
