Today’s Project
On the twelfth day of our 12 Days of Christmas in July Giveaway, my true love gave to me…these Knit Winter Scarf and Muff Patterns from Sullivans!
Winter Scarf Pattern
MATERIALS
- 2 – 100g (32yd) skeins of Sullivans USA Yorganza (100% polyester)
- Size 10 US needles
- Sewing needle, sewing thread to match
INSTRUCTIONS
Pick up 7 sts as follows: insert needle tip into the first hole on the top of the ribbon fabric. Weave the top from back to front through next 7 holes (7 sts on the needle).
Row 1: Insert RH needle into the last hole placed on the LH needle (as if to knit a st). Place next hole in fabric on the RH needle tip and pull the fabric through the hole on the LH needle (completing the knit st). Knit all stitches across the row in this manner.
Row 2 and all rows: Work as for row 1. Always turn the needle in the same direction after completing a row. Continue until scarf reaches desired length or until remaining ribbon fabric has at least 7 holes for casting off.
Last Row: Cast off all stitches by pulling the remaining fabric through the last stitch.
Finishing: To finish, sew the fabric end using your sewing needle and thread.
Winter Muff Pattern
MATERIALS
- 2 – 100g (32 yd) skeins of Sullivans USA Yorganza (100% polyester)
- Size 10 US needles
- Sewing needle, sewing thread to match.
INSTRUCTIONS
Pick up 14 sts as follows: insert needle tip into the first hole on the top of the ribbon fabric. Weave the top from back to front through next 14 holes (14 sts on the needle).
Row 1: Insert RH needle into the last hole placed on the LH needle (as if to knit a st). Place next hole in fabric on the RH needle tip and pull the fabric through the hole on the LH needle (completing the knit st). Knit all stitches across the row in this manner. Turn.
Row 2 and all rows: Work as for row 1. Always turn the needle in the same direction after completing a row. Continue until muff reaches desired length or until remaining ribbon fabric has at least 14 holes for casting off.
Last Row: Cast off all stitches by pulling the remaining fabric through the last stitch.
Finishing: Now you will need to sew the cast off row to the bottom side of the first row. To do this, lay the piece flat and fold the bottom ruffle up so that you can see the bottom of the cast on row. Using your sewing needle and thread attached the bottom and top of the piece to give the pice the round shape of a muff. Once you have sewed the top and bottom together, unfold the ruffle and your muff is complete.
