Golf Club Cover ~ Tartan Plaid
A simple, easy to knit golf club cover pattern in a classic tartan plaid design!
-
Three sizes: Utility/Rescue, Wood, and Driver
-
Requires three colors of yarn: one main color and two contrast colors.
-
100% wool yarn in worsted weight is recommended
-
Approximate total yarn requirements, without pom-pom:
- Utility/Rescue, 75-90 yds;
- Wood, 100-120 yds;
- Driver 125 - 155 yds
-
Allow an extra 40-50 yds for a pom-pom or 15 yds for a tassel.
-
The specially ribbed neck of the cover is stretchy and slips on/off quickly.
-
The plaid pattern is achieved by using a special non-stranded vertical piping technique which simplifies the knitting work and economizes on yarn requirements. This technique is demonstrated in this video by the Knitting Vortex.
-
Utility/Rescue and Wood sizes use #6 double pointed needles, while the Driver uses #6 and #8 needles.
-
All sizes require a #G or #H crochet hook to create the vertical striping
-
