When I logged in to Ravelry today, I got a note from rita0000 She was posting an old pattern of mine . I stupidly deleted a blog of mine quite a while ago and totally forgot I could use the wayback machine to find it. At least I'm assuming that's what she did. Anyhow reposting here :) .
If I made this again I'd likely make it one or two repeats wider and also longer. But this scarf was great for me , a daily task when I really needed one. And my sister still loves it.
**************************************************I used Zephyr in Ruby and knit on a 4 mm needle. Used approximately 400 metres. I didn’t measure for gauge - six repeats of the scroll pattern gave me about 14 inches wide. I cast off when it was about 62 inches long ( which blocked to 65 inches). I’m going to make it again with four repeats and add beads as well because i think it would make a pretty stole.
I cast on 62 stitches ( 6 x 10 +2) .
Scroll pattern: multiple of 10 plus 2

There, i’ve checked and rechecked my typing so hopefully i’ve got it right!
I’ll test knit it later to make sure since i’m going to cast on for another :)
Edited to say, yep it checks out fine!
