Christmas Present - Grand Finale

Img_8411

This is the last of the things I made for Christmas this year.  I saved the best for last.  I set out to make a scarves for the Farmer and his wife.  I used a seed stitch (k1, p1, repeat) for the scarves.  I just love this stitch and couldn't get enough of it, so I kept making scarves.  In all I made 14 scarves.  My husband said that this was a bit nutty and I think he's right.  I started knitting Halloween weekend and I was finished 2 days before Christmas.  I perfected the pattern I came up with and I couldn't stop knitting.  Below are 12 of the scarves.  I made two more after taking this picture.

Jolie's Scarf Pattern

  • Cast on 9 stitches
  • Seed stitch (k1, p1, repeat) until you only have about 1 foot or 2 of  yarn left
  • Bind off

It's really just that easy.  This was such a fun project.  It keeps my hands busy through many movies.  The scarves are super warm and I've been wearing mine (I couldn't resist, I wanted one too!) everyday.

Hurray for Jolie's scarf! I love mine, too, and I've had several friends ask where they could buy one!

I love my scarf and have been wearing the heck out of it this week during this cold weather. Thanks!
