Striking Hat and Scarf
Lion Brand® Amazing®
GAUGE:
18 stitches + 32 rows = 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.

3 skeins of yarn are used for the scarf, and 2 are used for the hat.

Striking Hat and Scarf Reviewed by Bonita Mahan on 2010-07-29
I knitted this scarf by the pattern except I chose to use the stockinette stitch instead of plain knit stitch to produce the curled edges. I was surprised that this yarn was so small and fine but the color knitted up so beautifully that I'm doing a second one in the Mesa color.
