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.

LOVE THE YARN, WOULD TO KNIT SCARFS FOR MY GRAND DAUGHTERS AND GREAT GRAND DAUGHTERS
Lovely yarn. I would knit some scarves for Christmas gifts.
It’s hard to decide what to make first with yorganza yarn as there are so many lovely alternatives….I’m thinking either a scarf for my sister, who is definitely a “fluffy” kind of gal or a toy for my grandson. Decisions, decisions, decisions….either way, you can’t go wrong.
HTML(cite} thanks
I would love to knit a wee sweater set for our new grand baby, a girl, who will be making her debut at the beginning of November. We are so excited.

This is amazing yarn! My daughters are avid knitters and I would have to divide this awesome gift between the girls. 🙂
I would love to make a cozy, little blanket with this.
I would definitely make the scarf and muff for my mom. /she walks a lot and needs to be warm and also fashionable. 🙂
I would make pllows. I think they would look great.
I don’t knit… But I would crochet either a scarf or even a blanket with the yarn. I haven’t used this type of yarn before, but I love crocheting and I’m trying out different patterns!
I created a beautiful scarf with a slight hood just for those times when the weather changes. This would a be beautiful addition to the pattern! I’ve just got to try it for this winter season! Thanks for the idea.

The scarf and muff as shown is beautiful. I would love to crochet these . . .

Probably some kind of scarf or wrap. I’m so excited to try this!
I would use this as ruffles on a skirt or a purse.
I’d make several of these to present to unexpected guests, keeping them in my stash closet. Tossed into a cute gift bag you always have something extra special to give away.
Ooo! I love the muff! And a nice fluffy scarf and hat to match! Oh, and a warm little coverlet for my soon to be born granddaughter (my FIRST one!!!) And, and, and….. Such beautiful FUN!
I would make scarves, purses, muffs and stuff.
I would make this yarn up into scarves for our church’s Fall Festival. They would be a big hit!!
Could make wonderful Christmas presents with these.
Although I would love to cuddle up in a scarf made from Yorganza (our Canadian winters can be pretty harsh), I think that this material would be ideal to make a “texture blanket” for a child. Children need sensory stimulation to develop growth and comfort within the world we live in, being able to feel and play with a frilly, “bumpy” blanket would be ideal. In fact, I suspect that the blanket would become “THE BLANKET” – a favourite security blanket. So, yup, I would make blankets for children.
Scarves for the less fortunate
Definitely the muff
I would make a beautiful baby blanket for my new grandson. For the remaining materials…ideas are endless. All I can think of is crafts, crafts, crafts! Use Yorganza yarn for making a finger knitting blanket; pom poms (cute hairy little animals); little wash/dish clothes; again…endless possibilities–
Fashionista nieces say – definitely cowls and boot cuffs!
I’ve seen this used on baby/toddler dresses. I have 2 granddaughters, 2 and 3 I would love to try this on dresses for my beautiful babies.
My daughter and granddaughter would love a scarf and muff using Yorganza!
scarves scarves and more scarves! This is so pretty1
I would make the scarf that you gave instructions for.
The muff looks like a lot of fun to make with this yarn. I’m always cold (no response on touch screens or mood pencils), so this would be fun to have around. If it turns out well, I’ll make another to give away.
i would make a scarf 🙂
Just what every woman needs (who is allergic to feathers ) an imitation feather boa!!!!!
It would make a wonderful purse. So many colors and patterns that you could have one for every outfit.
What a beautiful scarf and muff. I would love to win so I could make bothe.
I am a teacher and I crochet bookworms for my students each year. I think your product would make them absolutely AMAZING! I’d love to see how they would turn out… Like a frilly worm!
My new favorite item is a cowl and this would make a beautiful one. Lovely craft for the fall craft fundraiser at church to support the pet ministry.
I would decorate the tops of socks and the cuffs of gloves for starters. 🙂

Winter scarves for everyone, what else? Thanks for the giveaway. Good luck everyone.
I have knited scarfs and muffs for more decades than I care to admit. This is the first I’ve seen in years that I want to make for myself. I am excited to try it.
I think it would be a challenge to use this yarn. I would love to make a scarf for each of my family members along with a hat and possibly gloves that all match. It would depend on how the material worked for a hat and gloves. It would be something new for me to tackle and I think I would love to do that.
I love to learn new things. Sometimes they are easy and sometimes they are too hard for me and as I use looms it would really be a challenge so time will tell if I can make them or not.
Thanks for allowing me to enter this contest to win the yarn because I probably would not have bought that type of yarn, but now it is a possibility that I will.
I would make a scarf and muff like the picture. They really look cute.
I would make a scarf, perfect yarn for the mild climate in California. Also, I would use it to accessorize a purse, bag and other accessories I crochet.
If I win I will be gifting this to my friend Sarah. She and her mom crochet beautiful blankets and clothing items that they give to family and friends as gifts. They are treasured. Thank you for the great giveaway.
This would be so cool as a hat probably with coordinating ribbing in a regular worsted yarn.Then the muff to finish the look
Have a pattern to make a ruffled pillow
Looks like it would make an amazing poodle costume for Halloween. But since this is Xmas in July, let’s say trim for a sunhat, or a strap on a bottle carrier, or a cute bathing suit cover.
I’d make a scarf.
Hat and scarf
I’d make muffs to keep little girls hands warm!
I would make an infinity scarf to die for and matching mittens!

Depending on how much you can make with one package, I would make some 18″ doll skirts.
I would crochet a bag for my friend at the nursing home. She needs a bag to keep her ‘stuff’ in as she only has use of one hand. A pretty bag would be nice for her and it needs to be custom for her to hook to the wheelchair.
