The Triangle Tassel Scarf – Knit Pattern
Hello! I am Rin, the knitter behind Rin Knits and Stuff. I am a pattern designer and yarn dyer from Ohio. I am so excited to be back on the blog! Today I’m going to share a knit scarf design with slipped stitches to create a beautiful texture that can be customized to your liking. So let’s get to it.
Materials:
- Interchangeable Knitting Needle 10mm (US15) – Art. No 3644
- Interchangeable Cords (24-29 inch) – Art. No 3646 / Art. No 3647
- 3 different colored skeins of Super Bulky Yarn (I used Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick)
- Tassel Maker (Large) – Art. No 9941
- Mini Patchwork Scissors – Art. No 493/CW
- Tapestry Needle Set – Bent Tip – Art. No 3121
- Shiro Tape Measure – Art. No 806
- Blocking Mats
Gauge:
8sts x 10 rows = 4x4in (Using 10mm/US15 needles)
Work (S1PW, Yo, K1, PSSO) for one row, then purl the next row.
Note: This project can be made with any weight of yarn. If you chose to do a different weight of yarn, use the suggested needle size.
Abbreviations:
- K- Knit
- KFB- Knit front and back
- S1PW- Slip One Purl-wise
- YO- Yarn Over
- PSSO- Pass Slipped Stitch Over
- K2tog- Knit Two Together
How to (S1PW, Yo, K1, PSSO): This is how you will create the slipped stitch texture. You will begin by slipping a stitch purl wise from the left needle, to the right. Next, yarn over on right needle. Knit the next stitch on the left needle. Now you have 2 stitches in front of the slipped stitch and you need to pass the slipped stitch over the 2 stitches and off the right needle. You will do this by inserting the left needle into the front loop of the slipped stitch and pass it over the 2 stitches and off the needle.
Pattern:
Cast on 4 stitches (long tail cast on) with color 1.
Row 1: K all stitches
Row 2: Purl 3 stitches, KFB
Row 3: KFB (S1PW, Yo, K1, PSSO) repeat the ( ) to the last 2 stitches, K2tog
Row 4: Purl to last stitch, KFB
Row 5: KFB (S1PW, Yo, K1, PSSO) repeat the ( ) to the last 3 stitches, K1, K2tog
Row 6: Purl to last st, KFB
You will now be repeating Rows 3-6 for the rest of the pattern, until you are ready to bind off.
Next I will be sharing how I worked the different sections of color. If you would like to change it up by making sections longer or shorter all you have to do is switch to your new color on a Row 4 or 6. I recommend making your scarf at least 52 inches on the straight side (the side where you end at after a Row 3 or 5).
Color One – work for 34 inches, change to color two on Row 4 or 6
Color Two – work for 10 inches change to color three on Row 4 or 6
Color Three – work for 8 inches
Ending with a Row 4 or 6, you can now move on to binding your project off using the Stretchy Bind Off Method to give the end some extra length and give. Weave in your ends.
Now that your project is off your needles get out your blocking mats and block that scarf. It makes the texture even more beautiful than it already is. I chose to do the Wet Blocking method.
While blocking you can use this time to create some super fun tassels to tie onto the ends of your scarf. I used all three colors of yarn and Clovers Large Tassel Maker and followed along with their easy to read instructions. Once your scarf is blocked and ready you can tie the tassels to each corner.
Woohoo! Now you have yourself a super comfy and fun scarf. Wear it with pride and stay cozy friends!
