Knitting a Scarf with Variegated Yarn: The Mixed Berries Scarf

My daughter's "Mixed Berries Scarf."

My daughter's "Mixed Berries Scarf."

I finished the scarf for my daughter using some lovely variegated yarn I had in my stash.  I’m calling it the “Mixed Berries Scarf” because the colors in the yarn make me think of a bowl filled with beautiful, luscious berries.

I chose to design a reversible pattern so the scarf would look good from either side.  The pattern is very simple and easily memorized, which makes for quick and easy knitting.

As with many scarves, this scarf is a great stash-busting project since it only requires approximately 140 yards of worsted weight yarn to make a child-size scarf.  You can also make an adult-size scarf with just one hank (210 yards) of the yarn I used.  Download my pattern for more information and instructions:

    Thank you! Little Miss Pink-and-Purple loves the scarf, and it’s actually even more attractive in person (my photographic skills are still lacking). 🙂
