This scarf is probably the simplest knitting project to complete. To master the Garter Stitch Scarf you will need to use a basic knit stitch and join several balls of wool, weaving in the ends of wool as you knit.

Using chunky yarn makes this project both quick to build and satisfying as you are left with a great statement piece for your wardrobe which is incredibly warm and cosy. This scarf makes a perfect gift, choose your favourite colour (or colours!) and let your creativity go wild!

The scarf pictured is 6” x 80” (15cm x 203cm) which is long enough to wrap around the neck twice or to tie around the collar of a coat. Following the pattern below will produce a 9” x 80” (23cm x 203cm) scarf or a 6” x 80” (15cm x 203cm) scarf, if you would like to increase the size you can a) add extra rows which will make the scarf longer, b) add extra stitches to make the scarf wider. I have indicated on the pattern where to add extra rows and stitches to alter the size.

What you will need:

  • Chunky wool – I used Cygnet Chunky Wool – 3 x 100g balls*

  • 6.5mm knitting needles

  • Crochet hook / large blunt needle for weaving in the ends

  • Scissors

  • Tape measure / ruler

  • if you chose to increases the size of the scarf you will need to increase the amount of wool accordingly
