Ever since I released my popular crocheted Willow Scarf<\/a><\/strong> using Wool-Ease Thick & Quick, I have received many requests to make a knit version! The Willow Scarf has luxurious fringe and cozy pockets (pocket scarves have been taking the crochet and knit world by storm), so I wanted to make sure that the knit counterpart had these same elements as well! I went with a lovely ribbed design that uses basic knits and purls, and I made sure to give this scarf clean edges by using the special chained edge technique (see details in the pattern below). With this technique, you work the first and last stitch of each right and wrong side row in a special manner. I absolutely fell in love with this new “Flax” color as it is such a gorgeous and rich color!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once I was happy with the length, it was time to knit the two pockets! I decided to use the same ribbing pattern and worked some stockinette stitches towards the top for some visual interest. When it was time to seam the pockets to the scarf, I placed the pockets on the scarf and made sure that the ribbing of the pockets lined up with the ribbing of the scarf for a continuous and seamless look! I used the whip stitch and seamed both the front and back loops of the chained edge of the pocket to the outermost loop of the stockinette V section (explained in the pattern below). It was very handy having this line as a guide when placing and whip stitching the pocket into place!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used a large crochet hook to add strands of fringe as shown below. For a fuller look, I carefully untwisted the strands of Wool-Ease Thick & Quick so that two strands of yarn became four strands. You could also add tassels or leave the scarf without fringe if you wanted!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
