My first attempt at knitting something.
Materials:
Lion Brand "Hometown USA" Yarn
2 skeins Detroit Blue
2 skeins Dallas Grey
Size 14 knitting needles
Pattern:
It is a K2, P2 rib carrying the unused color along the side edge of the work.
Cast on 28 stitches
Rows 1-6: With Color A work in K2, P2 rib
Rows 7-12: With Color B work in K2, P2 rib
Repeat until desired length
Weave in ends to finish
The size of the colored stripes can be smaller or larger by adjusting the # of rows completed before changing colors.
There's 42 stripes. I was averaging between 13-15 mins per stripe including all the screw ups. So this probably took me between 10 & 11 hours. Must learn to knot faster. Also, I can't knit when my team is losing - it gets too tight again. The pattern & info is here: http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=3025108804876513866#editor/target=post;postID=6319567769951526963
Finished scarf is approximately 74" long and 6" wide unstretched.
