Here is a second scarf for Special Olympics. This one is knitted, following the “Heroic Stripes Scarf” pattern. It features garter stitch stripes interspersed with lace panels. As you can see, I have yet to weave in any of the umpteen-hundred ends. I’ve decided my next scarf will be knit in garter stitch using three skeins of yarn, carrying the yarn up the side as I go so there will only be 6 ends to finish. Or maybe I’ll do like Mom and have a large middle block of a single color with just a couple of stripes of the other color at the edges.
A scarf takes a little more yarn than I expected; after 2 scarves, I have but a little yarn left in two skeins. I estimate I can get a total of 8 scarves out of my 6 skeins of yarn.
