EASY "Peasy" Knitted Lacy Scarf (4 Righties)

[@gabriellaisgreat]

I've been in a knitting slump for a while. I was recently gifted a bunch of yarn and I've been searching for a new project to motivate me to get back into knitting again. I found this and so far I'm about eight sets in. Such an simple yet gratifying set of stitches. So pretty! Thank you so much for the work that you put into your videos!

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Thank you Gabriella - enjoy and don't give up knitting... it is an art and we all should be making art (to keep out of trouble 😂 ) 🌹🌹

[@mb-up1sg]

Thank you for showing how to knit in the English style. You are an excellent teacher. I am making this for a birthday present for a dear friend. Beautiful scarf!

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

thank you for your comment - 👍

[@shempershemp8822]

Absolutely Exquisite! After making a dish cloth size, I decide that I loved it enough to make a blanket. So far, I have two 6 foot long panels and I no longer fear lace patterns. Thank you!

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Hello Shemper! 🌸 That is wonderful! I love lacy patterns - and I love my Japanese stitch pattern book - I want to incorporate more of the patterns into my projects... Thank you for your nice comment 🌸💜

[@scottbryant6220]

I was looking for a pattern to use as a gift scarf to my new sister-in-law from India. she will get here just before Christmas and this is a perfect pattern for me to knit for her. now to find a nice hat pattern that will match. Thank you so much!

[@aloisiacaitir2034]

Thankyou for this so much. This is my first knitting project that's not just basic knit squares. I wrote your instructions down but i increased the stitches to 126 stitches so i can wear it like a shawl. So far im doing well for my first project following a pattern. My friend whos been knitting for 30 plus years says that what I've done so far with this project doesn't look like I'm a beginner knitter. You made it very easy & clear to understand unlike other project instructions, ive found them overwhelming to try. My mum used to knit with continental style, although i didn't realise until i watched this video so that bought back good memories of watching my mum knitting❤. Your accent is beautiful.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Catherine, thank you for sharing a nice memory with me. Let me know how your shawl turned out. I am proud of all my followers that do well knitting or crocheting along with my videos... 🍀🌹

[@aloisiacaitir2034]

@@HandMadeRukodelky i made a mistake & ruined completly lost my stitches trying to fix it because i don't know what i did wrong or how to fix it. So i had to unravel it all. Luckily i had only done about 20-40 rows. So i have started again. If i make another mistake I'll refer to knitting groups to get help of what i did wrong & how to fix it properly without ruining my work 😂. Thanx again.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Catherine, you either forgot to do YO, or you forgot to decrease... you have to pay huge attention to those - no watching TV, and no talking to anyone 😉- also sometimes that YO goes over the stitch marker to the other section - so watch that too... 🍀

[@aloisiacaitir2034]

Bronislava 4 HandmadeRukodelky thank you. I'll let u know when I've finished

[@susanlymbery]

[@inapupo3308]

I'm a new knitter and with your easy explanation I think I can do this scarf that looked pretty hard at first look. Thanks for breaking it down into easy to follow instructions. Great job!

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

+Ina Pupo Happy to hear that... if you are a beginner, you need to concentrate on counting stitches - do not knit when there are distractions around you... good luck

[@inapupo3308]

Thanks for the advice, I need all that I can get, I bought myself a stitch counter to keep track and I have been using it. It is not as easy to count as when I do crochet. The stitches are lot smaller.

[@bobbyboy7340]

Thank you for your easy instruction. I practiced several times and am now knitting the scarf. Very beautiful.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Hi Bobby - saying it aloud in the beginning is most important until you get used to the pattern - if you miss YO or decrease it is very hard to fix it 🍀

[@crystalfelock219]

This scarf is beautiful! This is only the second thing I have knitted so far! I think you have done a wonderful job explaining and teaching ! Thank you so much!

Thank you, Crystal. I know that some more advanced people get bored with my videos, but they can skip the boring stuff and see what they need to know, and people that need more in-depth video can keep watching and even re-winding 🌹🌹

[@KittenBowl1]

I live in Japan and no one here does English style but only continental and there’s another combination style, which is what my grandma used to knit in. So all of the English style videos I don’t normally watch because it’s confusing. Thank goodness you show in continental style now I can follow. Beautiful pattern btw! Thanks for sharing!! Just subscribed. :)

You are so welcome Linda - have a great time together. Make sure you don't forget any "yarn overs" - it can mess up your pattern and it is really hard to take rows out in lacy patterns... I try to say my stitches aloud so I do not forget to increase/decrease in right places... 🍀🌹

[@lindamarieskind6787]

@@HandMadeRukodelky Hello again Bronislava, aaawe, thank you so much for the extra tips, you are so right, we did mess up the first row of pattern!! How could we do that, well I think I took my eye off the ball and my wee sister missed a "Yarn over", what a laugh!! She then, when my back turned, pulled the whole thing out, wanting to "start again", "No, said I, we could have saved it by just going back to the four rows of garter stitch", "no said she, I want to start again" ... Ah well that's perfection pattern for you!! have a great day, and that's a good strategy to say the stitches out loud. hearts and roses Linda xo

[@luisak68]

hi thank you for sharing & taking the time to make a video . beautiful pattern. I learned to knit the english style in school. My mother saw me struggle with my projects, plus my stitch tension were either too tight or way to loose. & it was very slow progress which for kids can be discouraged. I would swap with knitting styles depending on the mood. After a shoulder neck injury. I found that I could knit for longer with the continental style than the English style after my injuries. thanks again

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

wow - what a nice story - thank you so much sharing it with all of us - I am intrigued by you saying that the continental style is easier on your shoulder neck injuries... very interesting - again THANK YOU VERY MUCH sharing this info with knitters - your post may help one day someone - two thumbs up

[@judylee3589]

I love the Continental stitch. I am learning English but I think I would prefer Continental. You make it look so smooth and easy and the scarf is beautiful!!!

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Hi Judy, some people can knit as smooth and easy in English as I do in Continental... I just grew up with Continental knitting... I didn't know there is an English style until I saw knitters here in the US knit that way - I was shocked to see a style like that, and since I taught knitting I had to learn to show them the stitches because they could not grasp (visually) what I was showing them in Continental (although I understood what they wanted to do in English)... I still struggle with English style and wish I would be smooth... but knowing both styles is wonderful when I want to knit fair isle patterns 🌹

[@swatileo1]

[@bb3878]

Thanks for such an easy demonstration on the scarf. I'll definitely try it as a new beginner. I can do the English style. Trying to lear the continental, it's so faster. I'm left handed and by your demonstrations I gained more insight than watching the continental demon on line. It's in how to hold/wrap the yarn and how hold the needles. Thank you so much. Do you have a video on continental knitting? Keep up the good works!!

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Over the years, I made lots of videos. Please check my channel. There is a video how to hold knitting needles for Continental knitting. I am not sure if I do have it for a left handed people. Good luck.

[@willtrinaharkess4967]

You're a great teacher! Complete beginner but I'm trying this tonight!

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

William, let me know how you are doing - advice for a beginner - make sure you concentrate on your YO, and decreases (K2tog or SSK - whichever is in the video) - there must be the same number of YO and decreases in the same section - count your stitches... if you will have more stitches in the section you didn't decrease or you made more YO, if you have lower number of stitches - you forgot to do YO or made more decreases than needed... talk your pattern aloud like a mantra and you should be OK (not make a mistake) good luck 🍀

[@shirleycoonce8726]

I love this pattern, I wonder if this would make a baby blanket, by adding extra 18 sets at a time. Thank you for sharing

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Hi Shirley, I think this would make a beautiful baby blanket - for my scarf I used only 2 repeats (I made narrow scarf) and made it longer than regular scarf - I wanted my scarf to wrap around. Depending on the thickness of your yarn you will need many multiples of 18 stitches... what you need to do is knit a swatch of 18 stitches and about 10 rows to see how wide 1 repeat is. Baby crib blanket is usually 30" wide, regular baby blanket is 34" wide, and toddler blanket is about 45" wide. So choose the width of your blanket and divide it by width of your swatch - and that will be number of your repeats. Then add one extra repeat (this pattern tends to "shrink" in its width a little) - so for example if your answer to your equation is 9, add to it 1 = the answer will be 10 repeats of 18 stitches = total 180 sts... that would be the number of your cast on stitches 🌹🍀

I dont know what I'm doing wrong. I've started this over 3 times. My stitch count does not stay at 18 sts. on each side of the marker.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Hi Shirley, if you have less stitches - you forget to do yarn over, if you have more stitches, you forget to knit two stitches together ... as I was knitting I would recite to myself the pattern (yarn overs and knit two togethers) so I wouldn’t forget them - I hope this helps 🍀🍀🍀🍀 for each YO there is a K2tog - increase and decrease to keep same number of stitches

[@bonnieandpaulbaker4454]

Have started this scarf, and am very impressed with the design, it is quite beautiful, and so easy to do. I have only been knitting since before Christmas after not knitting for over 25 years. A question...could you do this on circular needles to make a cowl, or would that not work?

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

+Bonnie and Paul Baker yes you can do it on circular needles - just add enough stitches to do several more repetitions, then connect into a circle and then knit to desired height = not as long as this scarf, and then bind off :-D OR do it like mine, but make one extra repetition, knit it as long as you need to wrap around your neck (once? twice?), bind of and then sew both end together in such way that it looks pretty and is almost invisible... good luck

[@hansidefouw8929]

Thank you for showing the continental and english style! My german mother tried to teach me her style, but i nether managed as in school at the same time i was shown the dutch style, the same as the english one. I did that all my life that is 8+ years. To put my left finger in the air is still impossible to do.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Hansi - it doesn't matter which style you knit - important is to knit - continental style vs English (in your case Dutch) deliver exactly same outcome - it is only how a person holds the yarn (left hand or right hand)... the yarn gets wrapped around the knitting needle exactly the same if you wrap it around the needle by hand, or if you grab the yarn with needle needle... the difference is only speed.... thank you for making a comment - this may help someone in the future :-) thank you

One-sixth in to this project and it’s turning out really nice! The pattern is really lovely, thank you for sharing! That said, after this scarf, I don’t think I’ll be knitting lace for a while because although the stitches themselves are easy, somehow I keep losing stitches here and there and I can’t find the dropped stitches. I think that’s just my beginner hands though, and maybe once I’m more competent, I’ll be better at avoiding and fixing mistakes. Any tips?

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Hi Adrija, I am glad you enjoy this simple lace pattern. I agree it’s beautiful. What works for me is that I say the stitches aloud (or in my head while I’m in public places) to myself as I am knitting - that’s the only way I don’t make mistakes

@@HandMadeRukodelky Ooh that makes a lot of sense, thank you so much! I’ve started doing that now and it’s helping a lot! I’ve also started writing out all the rows I’ve done so if when I put my work down, I know what to work next. Have a nice day!!

I'm starting to be comfortable with the continental knit, it's getting better. It is faster, but takes awhile to get use to.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Hi Diane, I am very comfy with Continental, however some knitters are fab with English - just like myself in Continental... I just cannot get the grasp of the technique they use while knitting - how they hold the yarn/needles and the movement of their fingers

[@susanlorch-kendrick2233]

Thank you for showing the English style in your videos, I do appreciate that but being a person who likes to learn, I shall try your continental style as it looks a lot quicker and anything that is quicker is good 😀

thank you too

Very very pretty.Love it! !!!

Thank you so much for this video 😊 My first ever knitting project with a "difficult/advanced" looking pattern is so beautiful, now when it's finely finished. And yes, very easy when you get it & didn't take a lot of time. A perfect holiday project. So now I'm thinking of doing a poncho with this pattern.. Wishing you a beautiful 2017 🎇🎉🎶 Hugs & sunshine ☀ N

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Yes poncho sounds fabulous - if you do it from two rectangles look up my image on my blog how to do it - all you need to do is figure it mathematicaly handmade-rukodelky.blogspot.com/2015/10/knit-poncho-in-any-size-free-pattern.html

Forgot to wish you the same - best year ever and sunshine too !!!

[@sunshinesilverarrow5292]

Bronislava Slagle Thank you for the tip, I will 😊As long as it's easy to comprehend, I'm don't speak the language of knitting.. Didn't know there was a "continental style or English style" of knitting and so on.. This is why the videos are so good, you watch and learn..the writing it's like ancient hieroglyphics to me 😉lol! Do you have a Instagram account? I would like to add you there. Hugs & sunshine 🎆N

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

I didn't know there was an English style of knitting until I saw someone here in the US knit that way :-) just like you said you watch and learn, and often rewatch (rewind and watch again LOL) - my instagram is bronislava_artknitcrochet

[@sunshinesilverarrow5292]

Thank you for insta 😊 & I took a look at poncho blog, so sweet!

[@swagatasom3429]

Dear Bronislava, your tutorial is so easy to understand. Thank you so much! I am a beginner knitter, and decided to give this a try. I have some No. 3 weight acrylic yarn; can I use that with matching needles? Would the pattern look like a lace shawl?

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Swagata, yes you can, however it will be a little narrower - so you may want to add 1-3 more repeats - depending how wide you would like the scarf or shawl

[@swagatasom3429]

[@mariacorona2991]

Your video are very nice and explain very well thank you but i don't know how to knit i just crochet.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

Hi Maria - I have plenty of crochet videos too - visit my channel and scroll through many videos - or below is the link with different playlists - you have to scroll through those also to see playlists with crochet projects - kzbin.infoplaylists 🌸🍀

Hi: finally I got it. I did a sample of 18 stitches for practice. Always ended up with 17 stitches..............after looking many times, I realized that you y/o after knit one six times...........yeah..............I am making a baby blanket. Should I add a few stitches on each side to make blanket sit flat or will I be ok just following pattern. I will be using 108 stitches. Thanks.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

WONDERFUL - great idea to practice!!! - I would definitely make about 8-10 sts for each edge and knit them on both sides!!! - otherwise it may curl up

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ here are few stars for good job hahahaha

[@7gloryf]

Beautiful scarf your instructions are clear and understandable. I will watch your video a few more times, since I'm a beginner knitter. Thank you.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

🍀 🌹 Go slow and you will do gr8 - good luck and let me know how you did - also, scarfs are long, so do not expect to finish it in a couple of days 🙂

[@blindknitter]

Very excited to make this for my stepmum.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

You are a wonderful stepdaughter ❤️ I hope she likes it. Don’t forget to block it, so it stays flat and doesn’t “roll”

[@blindknitter]

@@HandMadeRukodelky I will remember. She's a wonderful stepmum, and step granny. She was with me when my son was born, for all 36 hours of it, and has made my Dad very happy (which I thought was impossible after my Mum died.) It's nice to find such a lovely pattern in a style she'll love. Following you for more, this is so clear.

Thank you, I'm having trouble with the smaller version of this stitch, pattern King Cole baby Matinee coat pattern number 5588. For some reason I get the first row of the fan right, but the second row seems something is wrong. Pattern reads after the garter stitches, K1* (K2tog) twice, yfwd, K1 4 times, , (k2tog) twice rep from * to last st, K1. I don't know why when I do the second repeat that this is not matching up. Looks like I have two stiches behind where it is suppose to be for the k2tog. Driving my insane.

[@HandMadeRukodelky]

can you take an image of the pattern rows that are giving you hard time and send it to me either via facebook, or Instagram? links should be below the video. I'd love to try to knit it myself - perhaps I would figure out what you are doing wrong, or if there is an error in the pattern...
