Scarf Knitting Kit with Two Skeins of Worsted Yarn and a Beginner-Friendly Bias-Shaped Scarf Pattern
This scarf knitting kit pairs two skeins of worsted-weight yarn with a pattern for a long, narrow scarf you can wrap twice or arrange in different ways. Beginner-friendly garter stitch, occasional purl rows and a simple openwork row keep the knitting approachable, while bias shaping adds interest to the finished fabric.
The included Mountain Meadow Wool Laramie yarn has a soft feel, loft and bounce that show off the stitches. The pattern makes a 4 x 66 inch scarf for wrapping around your neck when the weather turns chilly. Suggested US 7 knitting needles are purchased separately.
