Seafoam Scarf
Posted by Ali G on Tuesday, 20 February, 2007
This is the picture and pattern (posted together for convenience) of my previously blogged-about scarf.
Pattern is worked over a multiple of 10 sts + 10.
Yarn: 260m (284 yards) of 100% Merino from Painted Yarns, sadly, no longer available.
Finished size: Width is around 6.5″ (16.5cm). Length is 58″ (147cm)
Tension for yarn substitution: 20 sts in stocking stitch on 4.5mm (U.S. #7) needles
CO 30 stitches.
Rows 1 & 2: K
Row 3: K8, (YO, K1, YO twice, K1, YO three times, K1, YO twice, K1, YO, K6) twice, K2
Row 4: K the stitches, dropping the YOs
Rows 5 & 6: K
Row 7: K3, (YO, K1, YO twice, K1, YO three times, K1, YO twice, K1, YO, K6) three times, ending last repetition with K3 instead of K6
Row 8: Repeat row 4
Repeat rows 1-8 until desired length is achieved, or you’re about to run out of yarn, ending with a row 6.

Lovely scarf! Do you ever watch DIY’s Knitty Gritty? Yesterday’s episode was on this stitch, which they referred to as the butterfly stitch. It looks beautiful when it’s done, and it doesn’t seem too difficult. I can’t wait to try it! Your color selection is wonderful.

Love this, will definitely try…
okay i need to know and have no idea where to find, so ill ask: where do you get these percentage bars?

Thanks!
I’ve not seen Knitty Gritty, and didn’t know it was called butterfly stitch, but it is indeed simple to work.
I’ve finally got around to putting the credit directly below the bars on the RHS.

Lovely, thanks for sharing the pattern. Did you use the whole 284 yards of yarn?

I’ve just joined my first International scarf swop – and your pattern has leapt out at me -it’s lovely! Is that DK or aran weight yarn then?

Thank you.
I used all but a couple of yards of the yarn to get that length. The measurements and photo are of the unblocked scarf—I still haven’t got around to the blocking part…! 😳
The yarn is aran/worsted, and is actually very drapey for the weight.
If anyone does knit this, I’d love a piccie of the finished piece.

Great scarf. I am using it for holiday presents. I used 2 skeins of Red Heart’s variegated regular ply yarn and added a fringe on each end. Everyone loved it and they all want one.
