About the Pattern

The Cats for All Seasons Scarf celebrates our feline friends through all the seasons of the year, starting with Winter and then visiting Spring, Summer, and finally Fall. Each seasonal section of the scarf shows cats being cats as they experience the world at different times of the year. It’s an adorably cute way to express your love for cats year-round.

Double knit, the scarf is fully reversible, featuring opposite color schemes on each side. The design is similar in layout to several of my other MKAL scarves, such as Cat Season Scarf, but it is designed for four sets of contrasting colors, one set for each season. Solid colors or yarns with subtle color changes work best. The color work is chart only, not written.

Instructions are included for the double knitting technique. The finished size of the scarf is approximately 70 inches (178 cm) in length and 5.5 inches (14 cm) in width.

Materials

  • Size 2 US (2.75 mm) needles.
  • Size 1 US (2.25 mm) needles (optional for a neater cast on edge).
  • Approximately 130 yards (119 m) each of eight contrasting colors of fingering weight yarn, two colors for each season.
  • Needle to weave in ends.

Note: Ensure that each pair of colors for a particular season contrast well with each other to show off the design. Here are some sample colors that I chose for my scarf:

Winter: Dark blue and pale blue
Spring: Dark green and light pink
Summer: Dark teal and yellow
Fall: Dark brown and orange
