Short Row Scarf

Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®

GAUGE:

16 sts = 4 in. (10 cm) in Garter Stitch (knit every row). 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.

NOTES:

Short Rows are another way to add shaping to knitting, without increasing or decreasing. When working short rows, only part of a row is knit before your work is turned. This gradually adds height to one side of the knitting, while the other side is left as is. In the Short Row Scarf pattern, short rows are used to create an interesting scarf that spirals.

Reviewed by Andrea Hightower on 2011-09-24 *****
Great project to add beading to! String beads onto your yarn before cast on. Beads will lay between your ball of yarn and your knitting needles and growing scarf. On each row 10 as you come to each grouping of 5, slide one bead up and just next to your right hand needle, perform the next 5 knit stitches and repeat the beading process. On row 10 you will end up with a bead in-between 5&6, 10&11, 15&16, and 20&21.
