BASIC KEYHOLE SCARF
This pattern is for standard, mid-gauge & bulky flat bed knitting machines.

The term “keyhole scarves” refers to scarves that have a slit into which one end is inserted to secure the scarf. No knot is needed. They are tidier and less bulky than other scarves to wear and great for people like me who are accessory impaired. They can be made on any machine and in many stitches.

Tamm Bebe 1 strand gets a gauge of 27 stitches/38 rows/4” on the standard gauge machine at stitch size 8-9 or the Passap at stitch size 6-8. Mid-gauge machines can match the gauge at a smaller stitch size. 2 strands of Tamm Bebe run together as 1 get a gauge of 18 stitches/24 rows at stitch size 5 on the bulky or a larger stitch size on mid-gauge machines. Tamm Nordic run single stranded gets the same gauge on bulkies and may be substituted. Bonds use the bulky version and keyplate 3.
