Chain Stitch Scarf
Knit sideways, the Chain Stitch Scarf is a quick project that will shake up your usual knitting routine. This knit scarf pattern has a slightly lacy look that makes it a fun accessory. Its also a great pattern for showing off that funky art yarn you bought at the local yarn store the other day (you know which skein Im talking about). Bigger needles are used to make this one fast project, perfect for last minute gifts or a busy weekend.
