Scarf knitting patterns"Free scarf pattern"
A couple of easy scarf knitting patterns are posted here for you. One is a modern three way hooded scarf that is ever so attractive. The other is a vintage pattern that is just as nice today as it was back than. I have to admit, as for hand knitting I am a lazy knitter. I prefer to knit with the larger needles and chunky yarn. I do love the look of the tiny-needled projects but I just don't have the dexterity I use to have. So I use the bigger supplies now. This doesn’t really limit what I make it just speeds it up. I still make scarves and I think the vintage pattern below is a great example of what can be accomplished with just a bit of imagination. I also enjoy creating scarf knitting patterns.
