ReplyDeleteIt's a gorgeous scarf, Jill! Awesome terrific job. Mahalo for sharing your pattern.
ReplyDeleteMele Kalikimaka to you and the ohana and hope that beanie is useful now.
I think there might be a mistake in the pattern. After the first initial 3 row pattern.
ReplyDeleteDo you knit row 2 twice then move on to knit row 3 twice? I have been knitting rows 1-3 then row 2, row 3 then row 2 and 3 again. However this results in the pattern being on the wrong side after I knit rows 1-3 again.
Also, shouldn't the set up rows be reversed before binding off? Row 2, then Row 1?
Yes, I had that same problem. I added an extra Row 2 after the final Row 3 before moving back to Row 1 and that fixed the problem. So
ReplyDeleteRow 1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2
then repeat
I dont think row 1 is being repeated often enough.... :( I'm giving up....
DeleteI am a beginner, can someone please clarify the row order again. (starting from cast on) please.
ReplyDeleteI corrected the errors in the pattern. So sorry about that. Hopefully the pattern reads correctly now.
ReplyDeleteDoes that mean that the pattern on this page is now the correct version?
Deletecast on tonight! thanks for the great pattern :)
ReplyDeleteBeen looking for a scarf pattern all day...this is it...great proportions, great texture, great pebbly edging -- perfect....

ReplyDeletewhat kind of yarn to you use for this scarf, can you post it, it really looks like a really nice pattern. thanks
Hey,
ReplyDeletethanks for the pattern.. it's gorgeous. I used Sulka yarn by Mirasolperu.com. It's so comfy and looks great. Check out the pics on my ravelry account.. find me under azncgn :) Thanks again for the pattern
Still looking for the real corrected pattern.....I followed the pattern like the others and it's wrong. Where is the corrected one ?? Thanks....because this is gorgeous !!
ReplyDeleteYes I completely agree with the person who posted the 5:29 pm comment.... It's gorgeous, but it's wrong... :( I want the corrected pattern please....
ReplyDeleteI am knitting this right now, and I don't see any problem with it. Why do people say the pattern is wrong? Maybe you have corrected the version since they have checked it. Anyway, thanks a lot for this pattern :)
ReplyDeleteis the pattern Row 1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2 or Row 1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2?
ReplyDeletethis is just the perfect scarf pattern! im a 17 year old knitter and this is simple but looks so cute. thank you so much for this!
ReplyDeleteYes, this pattern does go in the order of 1,2,3, then 2,3,2,3, then 2. Repeat, and make notes if you're confused. Love the pattern!
ReplyDeleteI finished my scarf today and it is lovely except it curls slightly. Did anyone else have this problem? I'm not sure how to fix it
ReplyDeleteHey, a bit late to answer but yeah I'm making the scarf, gone through the pattern 10 times now (out of 38 or whatever to get the correct length), and the sides tend to curl in a lot. Might be an issue with the tightness of the knitting, I'm wondering if washing or ironing it might help?
DeleteI am a novice knitter but love to knit. Just found your pattern for this gorgeous scarf. Since I have had some problems in the past with stitch numbers being incorrect, I checked the number of stitches and believe there is an error in row 2 of the pattern - only 17 stitches are accounted for and all other rows total 20. Can you tell me what stitch to use for the other 3. As well, do you not cable behind?
ReplyDeleteI count 20 stitches on row 2 and I cabled to the front and it made a beautiful scarf.
DeleteYou're getting confused by the instruction "C3F". This instruction takes up 6 stitches - ignore the "3" in the middle of the instruction. So following C3F: "Slip next 3 stitches onto cable needle, hold in front, knit next 3 stitches, knit cable needle stitches = 6 stitches. So you have used up all 20 stitches. Hope this helps :-)
DeleteThank you so much for this pattern. This is the first cable scarf I knit and it's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI crochet, but this is going to be my first attempt at knitting. I noticed the comments above, and want to know if this is the corrected version. Thanks a bunch, and I hope to hear from you soon!!
ReplyDeleteHi love your scarf. What do u mean when you said knit set up rows once at the beginning of the pattern thanks

DeleteI'm new to knitting but I think her pattern is as follows;
ReplyDeleteS=setup rows
First Knit: S1, S2
Then knit pattern: row1, row2, row3, row2, row3, row2, row3, row2 (repeat until your scarf is the desired length)
When desired length is reached knit: row2, S1, S2, and bind off.
Does this help? I've just started and I'm at the end of the first pattern repeat and it looks correct...cable looks to be forming correctly etc. and stitch count matches up.
This is my first knit project in 30+ years! I don't know why I waited soooo long to start again? I'm making my scarf in Café Latte color, it is turning out beautiful. Thanks for a great pattern! I'm also thinking of making 6-7 and sewing them together to make an afghan..... I think that would be gorgeous in your beautiful pattern.
ReplyDeleteI finished my scarf using this pattern and it looks lovely. I'm a beginner and still can manage it. It's so satisfying. Thanks for sharing the pattern!
