I’ve finally managed to write out a new pattern! It’s free, and for an Infinity Scarf, my first. It’s a warm and cosy cowl or scarf made from a lovely bamboo blend yarn. It’s long enough to wrap twice around you neck, but not so long when a single loop it won’t keep your front warm.
It’s based on a simple 4 row repeat with only 3 stitches, so anyone can knit it up!
You can get the pattern from my Ravelry store – download here
You can get the yarn here in my yarn store.
Here’s a photo of Susan wearing her version of this infinity scarf. She made it with Debbie Bliss Cashmerino from her stash and is narrower than the pattern calls for, as she didn’t have enough yarn to complete a larger size. It looks great on you, Susan!
Could you explain the wave pattern stitch for me (wyif) Please.
Hi – WYIF means ‘with yarn in the front’so you Purl 1, slip the next stitch onto the right hand needle as if you are going to purl, and you make sure the yarn is in the front of the work. You purl the next stitch and you end up with a loop in between 2 purl stitches. Hope that helps! Denise
Thank you, Denise, I really like your pattern so glad you designed it. I am looking forward to knitting the scarf for myself. Janis
Please do send me a photo when you’ve finished – I’d love to see it!
Reblogged this on Through The Looking Glass and commented:
Wow! 10,000 downloads for this pattern! There are some gorgeous examples on the Ravelry Pattern page – take a look!
Do you have a hat pattern or mitts in the wave stitch to match??
I plan on adding a handwarmer pattern eventually!
How would I add a picture to this?
Hi – I’d love to see it! You can add a photo to the ravelry pattern entry or you can email me a photo to looking(dot)glass(dot)designs(dot)12(at)gmail(dot)com.
Thanks! Denise
Love this pattern! I made mine in Debbie Bliss Cashmerino, and it’s so soft around my neck! It was stash that I had, so I made mine narrower than the pattern calls for, because I knew I wouldn’t have enough yarn to complete the larger size.
Hi, I am a bit confused on the pattern row 2. I must be doing something wrong as I end up with 7 stitches on my needle? Am I reading the pattern incorrectly?
Hi Sylvia – Can you email me on looking (dot)glass(dot)designs12 (at) gmail(dot)com with some photos so I can see where you are going wrong? Thanks, Denise
I’m also having trouble with the wave pattern. When I got to the end of the row I did not have enough stitches left for p1 k4? Was I suppose to P1 k4 after each 8 p1 s1 wyif’s. Making each step 13 stitches
Hi – there are 21 stitches in each repeat. Once you start the wave stitch, place markers every 21 stitches so you know when you have miscounted. Hope that helps! Denise
I am having the same problem. Did you figure it out?
Hi – Make sure you have stitch markers every 21 stitches once you start the waves pattern. Hope that helps! Denise
I can’t see the pattern anywhere to print
