[Nfb-krafters-korner] Superbowl Knitting

[River Woman]

thanks, I will have to do this one! This is a great pattern to do when you 
want something mindless to break up the tension between difficult patterns. 
I copied and saved it for later - would be good to do on the plane to Puerto 
Rico in a few weeks when we take off.

> I'm actually wearing the scarf I made from this pattern right now

> The pattern is by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee. I quote her here between lines

>
> --------------------
> Start: Cast on 26 stitches (to make it wider or narrower add or remove
> stitches in groups of 4 )
>
> Row 1: *knit 2, knit into the back of the next stitch, purl 1. Repeat from
> * till there are 2 stitches left. Knit 2.
>
> Repeat that one row every row until you can stand it no longer, your scarf
> is long enough or you run out of yarn, whatever comes first. Cast off.
>
> This pattern is quick, easy, has only one row to learn, is reversible,
> looks good in any gauge, is easy to make wider or narrower (making it
> awesome for handspun) and looks (I believe) fabulous.
> --------------------
>
> For you beginners, knitting in the back of a stitch is the same as regular
> knit stitch, only you stick your needle into the leg of the stitch that is
> on the back side of the left hand needle instead of on the front side as
> normal. You then wrap the yarn around the right needle, pull it through,
> and drop the  old stitch off the left needle, just like ordinary knit
> stitch.
>
> You can knit this scarf with any gauge yarn, but I recommend something 
> with
> variegated colors, but it will look wonderful in a solid color also. I 
> knit
> mine using Knit Picks Stroll Tonal, which is a fingering weight yarn, in
> the Summer Blooms colorway, which is a handpainted yarn in lots of shades
> of pink.
