Stripes and Ladders sample

Make It

This project was made from an independent Craftsy designer's pattern:
Stripes and Ladders »

Instructions

I had fun playing with the colours for the stripes for this project. I would definitely make it again to use up more yarn from my scrap bag!

Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Unisex

Style: Retro / Vintage, Mod, Traditional, Casual


Materials

Sweet Paprika Staccato, 1 skein Northern Sky (MC) and small amounts of assorted colours for CC stripes.

What was your inspiration?

My sister Margaret designed this scarf as a project for our brother to make since he's just learned to knit and wanted to make himself a scarf. I loved the simplicity of it as well as the potential to use up some of my many scraps of yarn!

What are you most proud of?

The fact that this is a Christmas present and was finished weeks before Christmas.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Have fun with the colours of the stripes in this scarf. You could make it with as few as two colours, or with as many colours as you want!
