Garter Stitch Chevron Scarf
This scarf is my ode to the Chevron Scarf in Last-Minute Knitted Gifts, except I knit
it in garter stitch, as I enjoy the squishiness of Sock Yarn in garter stitch better
than stockinette. It gives the scarf a bit more heft and structure and it is the
perfect project to use up 2 skeins of sock yarn.
Since I modified the original pattern, I thought I'd tell you how I knit mine, in case
you want to knit yourself one as well.
Materials
2 skeins Sundara Yarn sock yarn. Scarf shown is knit in “Dahlia” and “Daffodil”.
You could also easily knit this out of 2 skeins Sundara Yarn fingering silky merino or
2 skeins Sundara Yarn fingering merino cashmere.
US size 5 needles
Tapestry Needle
Gauge
9 stitches per inch on US size 5 needles. Gauge is not entirely important, as a
larger or smaller gauge will simply result in a wider or narrower scarf.
