A Week of Scarves! Day 7 - Basic Sampler Scarf

Whew! Day 7 of the week of scarves! I haven't made this one yet, but this will be by next scarf project. It's a basic sampler scarf from Lion Brand yarn. They offer this free pattern with photo on their website. Looks like a good way to learn several different pattern stitches and combine them in one simple project.

Basic Sampler Scarf

Lion Brand® Wool-Ease®

Materials:

Size: One Size
6 x 56 in. (15 x 142 cm)

2 skeins yarn

Size US 9 needles or needle size to give correct gauge

Gauge:

17 stitches and 24 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in Stockinette stitch (knit on right side, purl on wrong side). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
