Introducing the Trails of Love Scarf!

Well, Schnapps and I made a scarf to go along with the Trails of Love hat.


Here is the pattern in case you are interested.  


You will need 100 - 120 yards of super bulky or 6-weight yarn and size US 13 needles.

Abbreviations:

s1pw:  slip one stitch


Cast on 17 stitches.


Work Pattern:

Row 1:  p2, *k1, s1pw, k1, p2*; repeat from * to *
Row 2:  k2, *k3, p2*; repeat from * to *

Repeat Rows 1 - 2 until the piece is the desired length.

Bind off in pattern.

This is an easy pattern that works up quickly using the super bulky yarn.  If you want to use different weight yarn, the pattern is in multiples of 5, plus 2 end stitches.  
 
I would suggest:
 
 To knit this using 5-weight yarn, use size 10.5 needles and cast on 22 stitches. 

To knit this using worsted weight yarn, use size 8 needles and cast on 37 stitches.

To make it wider, just add increments of 5.
