Introducing my Heartsong Scarf. This is a one skein project when made with Lion Brand Amazing. I knit 4 of these as Christmas gifts for friends. It was like eating potato chips, you can't stop at one! LOL!
Heartsong is a fast knit, heart shaped scarf that is knit from the top down. You'll need size 8 (5 mm) knitting needles and 147 yards of Aran/heavy worsted weight yarn for the project. A solid color, long color run, or a variegated yarn will all work well for this scarf.
The sample picture above was knit with Lion Brand Amazing in the Pink Sands colorway. Finished size is 26" neckline x 9" deep. I blocked it to bring out the points. After blocking it measured 28.5" x 10.25". (I'm working on releasing a shawl sized version of this design.)
Here it is in the Aurora colorway.
The Acadia colorway
And Strawberry Fields
Here's how it looks on my dress form. You can wear the point in back or front.

Bass Scarf - a fast knit
Looking for a fast project that will keep your neck warm?
Grab 200 yards of bulky or super bulky weight yarn that can be knit with size 13 (9 mm) knitting needles and cast on for this scarf. It works up very fast into a cuddly, bulky scarf that can be worn in many ways. Increases and decreases shape the scarf.
The pictured scarf was knit in garter stitch using 2 skeins of Loops & Threads Charisma in the northern lights colorway. Finished size is 56” long x 7” wide.
The two page pattern is being introduced at the reduced price of $2.00.

Hypersonic Scarf to knit
Hypersonic
is a fun garter stitch scarf to knit that has stair step edges. Increases and binding off
stitches form the unique shape of this scarf. I love how this turned out!
You’ll need size 8 knitting needles and DK, worsted or Aran weight yarn (136-198 yards) for this project. Make it as long or short as you like and add a tassel to the end if you like.
The Noro scarf pictured above measured 40” long x 6.5” wide. I also knit it with one skein of Knit Picks Chroma for a scarf that measured 51” x 7”.
I highly recommend using a yarn with a long color run for this scarf, though it can be knit with solids or more than one color.
You can knit it with any weight of yarn you like by changing the needle size to suit the yarn.

Mischief Managed Cowl & Headband to knit
Mischief Managed is an easy-to-knit garter stitch cowl worked in two colors but with a bit of a twist. The second color is only used in the center of the scarf and not along the edges.
You’ll need size 8 (5 mm) knitting needles and two colors of worsted or Aran weight yarn (about 131 yards of a main color and 40 yards of a contrast color).
Once done, overlap to form a V and sew on buttons. The pattern also includes a bonus headband pattern.
This cowl could be knit in other weights of yarn by changing needle size to suit yarn and changing the number of stitches you cast on.
The three page pattern can be found in my Ravelry pattern store.
