Simple Hip Knit Scarves is Here!

By igottknits

Tis' the season for scarf making! If you love to make scarves...and I know you do, you'll LOVE Simple Hip Knit Scarves. Here's your chance to get a  copy of the book, packed with fourteen enticing scarf patterns for knitters of all skill levels.
Wonder &Whimsy

Get your knitting fix with a selection of long skinny scarves, chunky scarves, scarflettes and neck warmers to keep your needles clicking through the holidays.

Many talented designers have shared their imaginative creations that grace the pages of this electrifying book. Here are just a few designs that are on my own personal "knitting wish list" this season: Wonder & Whimsy is constructed with long, continuous garter-knit strips. Featured in Noro Iro, it  looks alluring when worn tousled around the neck, allowing the vibrant piles of the garter-stitch strips to meander every which way.

Stormy Weather
Another little number on my hot list is Stormy Weather, created using Brown Sheep Top of The Lamb sport. This two-color, tonal scarf is knit lengthwise on large needles, creating a fun, loose-gauge look. The braided fringe adds a bit of dimension to this stylish piece.
Ethereal Dream

Ethereal Dream, a soft billowy scarflette, is a perfect project for the beginner. This piece is made in Kid Silk Haze by Rowan, and knits up beautifully on a size five needle.

With the holidays fast approaching, we're all short on time. Scarves make the ultimate gift, because they take little time, require little investment and offer stunning results.

Get out those favorite needles ready, grab yourself a copy here and get busy!
