I came up with another mini scarf design that I quite like. It isn't as fast as the other ones I've come up with, but I think it looks neat enough to take a bit of trouble. One of these days I'll get something to display my stuff on so I can take better pictures for you.
Zig-Zag Mini Scarf
For this I used Caron Simply Soft and an F hook. (You guessed it, the F hook was what I had in my purse at the time.)
Ch 270 (Like most of my scarves, length is entirely up to you. This one is in multiples of 9 sts)
Hdc in the second ch from the hook. Work hdc's in the next 2 ch sts. *3 hdc in the next ch. Work hdc's in the next 3 ch sts then work 1 dec. Hdc int he next 3 chs.* Repeat from *to* across ending with 3 hdc in last ch.
That's it. Very simple, though annoying. I hate working off the chain. It can't be helped for this one though and I think the wavy zig-zag is fun. There's a variation too, if you like. The zig-zags will be more pronounced if you replace the decrease with skipping those two ch sts and resuming the hdcs in the usual place.
That's it for today, I've got a hockey game to go to! (Taking yarn and a hooks in my purse, of course. I get the dt's if I'm away from yarn too long. Maybe I'll come up with something epic!)
