For Christmas I decided to go all out for my sister. Because her favorite color is light pink, I decided a pair of gloves and a scarf would be perfect. I started with the scarf and created my own pattern for double pointed knitting. I did the same pattern on the ends and then a checker pattern in the middle. Here is the result:
At the beginning, it was really fun and the pattern was not too hard to follow. Then I got into the checkering. My yarn twisted a lot and I got sick of it. If you decide to do checkering, make sure you have a way to make your pattern varied or you will go crazy. I had about 18 inches of checkering at least in this scarf. Throwing it across the room a few times was tempting, but I did it and it looks wonderful.To see the gloves that go with this scarf, click here.
