Hello Knitlisters,

I have a very simple pattern that I was planning to give as my gift to the
knitlist, and then someone asked about a reversible pattern for a scarf, so I
won't wait any longer.  It is based on a stitch pattern someone posted to the
list last year.  I used to to make a scarf for a Christmas gift which was
very well received.

Easy scarf pattern

Approximately 8 inches wide, 60 inches long.

500 yards worsted weight wool, size 8 needles.

Cast on 50 stitches.

Slip first stitch of row, then K1, K1, P1 across.

Knit until yarn runs out, bind off.  

Looks good in a vareigated (I used Mountain Colors 50/50 alpaca/wool) or, for
a very basic scarf, in a solid.  Would also work in mohair, adjusting the
needles and stitches cast on according to the yarn.  Would also be the same
for a finer yarn.  Also could adjust the stitch count for a wider or narrower
scarf.

is only just now November!  Who wanted to trade for some "knitting weather"?
 I have plenty to share!
