Free Feather and Fan Knitted Scarf Pattern
designed by Wendy D. Johnson
This pretty scarf is worked on US7 needle, in hand painted cashmere yarn (a light worsted) from Danette Taylor Designs.
Note: For this scarf, I used 400 yards of a light worsted weight hand painted cashmere and my resulting scarf was 55″ long.
Pattern Instructions:
Cast on 58 stitches.
Rows 1, 2, & 4: Knit.
Row 3: Knit 2, (knit 2 tog) 3 times, (yo, k1) 6 times, (knit 2 tog) 6 times, (yo, k1) 6 times, (knit 2 tog) 6 times, (yo, k1) 6 times, (knit 2 tog) 3 times, knit 2.
Repeat these four rows until the scarf is as long as you want, or until you run out of yarn.
