Scarf - Corona knitting

Knitting project - long scarf - 

The wool: Mille Colori Baby - by Lang Yarns
and it is really soft and warm - good for babies and grandmas

This wool makes the change of colors by itself

The zig-zag ist made like this: Cast on a number of stitches

which can be divided by 12 - plus two stitches. I had 96 stitches

plus 2 stitches on my needles.

First row: Start with 1 stitch - 

knit 5 stitches - knit 2 stitches together - knit 4 stitches - 

two stitches out of the next stitch - continue till the end - 

finish with 1 stitch.

Second row: knit all stitches,

All other rows: Repeat 1. and 2. rows

 



Go on knitting, till you reach about 1,80 m.

Don‘t give in before!

But take care not to make mistakes in counting.

For your help use stitch markers every 12 stitches -

Go on knitting while you are waiting after your Corona

vaccination

Knit about 3 months - or less if you are a fast kitter.

I used a bit more than 250 g of the Mille Colori Baby Yarn

  
And I liked the idea to make fringes as a finish.

This is my left-over Yarn - I love left-overs - to touch it

and enjoy the feel.

The scarf

It is finished the scarf which I began first with another pattern

but saw that I won‘t be able to finish it to be recognized

as a scarf

and now this is Frau Mayer wearing it - a model once 

published in the magazine Brigitte, long long ago

when DH still made such things - today his objects are

larger, house renovation etc.

the sarf is for me

an intricate pattern - I was not able to form a scarf with



unravelling

washing and drying

and looking for another pattern

(see at the bottom of the page)

no fast knitting but I had the time during holidays

and summer heat when quiet sitting was the best 

Photo below:

It is the same wool under electric light - I knitted a cord 

to make the neck a bit more attractive -

knitting with two needles and 5 stitches - no turning

just pushing the knitted stitches to the beginnning and

go again from right to left 

the excess length ended in a knitted ball - I could make a snake‘s 

head of it -
