You're so welcome!
I just did this in the crochet pattern and it is so universal it works with every outfit. Thank you
Neat!
You say a charity pattern…are there some organisations that will accept these scarves when finished? If so who? Please. We live down south and don't really need these but its good to knit for others!
There is one I really love that comes to mind, the red scarf project. Also, try your local homeless shelter (call first), they need warm weather items so badly when it gets cold outside.
Great pattern! Getting yarn today. A good project for New's Day I don't like football.
Thanks

Love this scarf. Picked up the yarn yesterday and had it finished by the end of the day. Just need to take the scarf to the store and find the perfect buttons!
Thanks!
I just started knitting this pattern. It's a great beginner's pattern! I've normally done loom knitting, so this is my first real needle knitting project. Love it so far 🙂
Congratulations on your first needle project…so exciting! 🙂
i cant wait to make this…..thank you…..BLCKsROSE
Hi:
What kind of yarn is the best for this scarf?
Thanks!
Hi, thank you so much for this pattern. It is fun to make, and I'm sure that my grandchildren will love it. My daughter will too. It's so nice of you to share your talents. Thanks again. Germaine
Love this! Going to make it today! Cannot wait!
Thank you for this pattern. It is so simple to make. My daughters will love having it. Making one tonight!
Hi, this is a lovely pattern, but I'm not sure if I've missed something. If I co 16 stitches it ends with a YO and knit last stitch. Shouldn't it end with k2tog knit last stitch. The only way I can get it to work is if I co an odd number of stitches. Advice please?
