THANKFUL SALE! I’m very thankful for so many things, but especially for having the chance to explore my creativity through my knitting patterns. Thank you to each and every one of you who has bought a pattern! Here is a sale to celebrate, no codes required.

The sale runs through December 2.

About the Pattern

“Flow State” or being “in the zone” describes a person being completely absorbed in what they are doing. This often leads to higher productivity and greater enjoyment of the task. Flow state is exactly how I feel about knitting. When I really get into a rhythm, the stitches just flow. It is almost a form of meditation, which helps me relax and reduce stress.

I named this scarf “Flow State”, not only to represent this form of concentration when knitting, but also to represent the flow of a river. The curves flow along the length of the scarf just as a river flows around its banks. The scarf is thick and squishy, perfect for cold weather days. The ribbed pattern is also reversible.

Finished length is 62 inches (157 cm). For a longer or shorter scarf, work fewer or more repeats of the charts.

Types of stitches required: knits, purls, increases, decreases, slipped stitches. The design is chart only, not written instructions.

Materials

  • Size 8 US (5mm) needles.
  • Approximately 250-275 yards (228-251 m) of aran weight yarn for a 62 inch (157 cm) length scarf.
  • Needle to weave in ends.
