I received a gorgeous hank of Lion Brand Collection® Silk Yarn and have been just itching to use it. But I loved it so much I let it sit and wait for the perfect project. And I found it!! I learned a new knitting stitch and thought it would be awesome for showing off the beauty of this yarn, and it did. I am so in love with my new scarf! And of course I wanted to share my knit scarf pattern with you, my fiber-loving friends. 🙂 I hope you love it as much as I do.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful knit stitch and scarf! I’d like to know if this pattern has a particular multiples of stitches… I’d like to make mine wider. Is this based on an even number of stitches?
I’ve just started this pattern and am soooo excited about it. I do have one question. The directions say Rows 17 – 22 Knit every other row What should I do to the row I am not knitting? Purl?
Hi Dee 🙂 For those rows you should be knitting every row (garter stitch), not every other row.
I’m I’ve been making this scarf for years and have sold many of them. People see me working on one and I get an order for one in their favorite color. Fun. I Have a favorite stitch I use for a cowl you can also use as a hood. Great for cold weather. My design. I found a stitch I love and adapted it to a cowl. My first attempt to write a pattern.
