A friend in my knitting group showed me a scarf that her mother (Helen) had knit for her over 40 years ago. She wasn’t able to find a pattern exactly like it, so she asked me if I could design a pattern that would produce the same scarf.
The pattern is written for chunky yarn because that is what her mother used. It would be possible to knit this with other weights. Just choose a needle that produces the desired fabric, and cast on an even number of stitches to give the desired width.
Now that I have the pattern, I plan to knit several of these adorable, quick little accessories as gifts. I hope others find the pattern useful.
