This was the sixth scarf I made with the Knifty Knitter loom. I made two other scarves exactly like this one except for the colors, which were selected to match the school colors of the recipients.
"School Color Scarf" details:
Used the shortest of the Knifty Knitter long looms, pictured above. Used all 12 pegs on each side. I don't know the name of the stitch I used, so I will have to update with that information later.
Yarn used: **to be updated**
The finished scarf was 188 stitches long, in alternating color bands of 8 and 4 stitches. It was approximately 70 inches long and 4 inches wide.
Thoughts for next time:
I think it ended up just a tiny bit too skinny for my preferences. I think maybe 14 pegs would have given a better width. With one strand of worsted weight yarn, the knit does have a loose look, but I think two strands would have made it too stiff. Because it was double-knit, the scarf feels pretty thick and is not "holey"despite the loose knit.
