\"Challenge!\"<\/a>

Challenge!<\/p><\/div>Just a quick update on my 5 Scarf Challenge: I’ve finished two scarves, using two skeins of Red Heart’s variegated yarn in the shade of Mulberry Mix; and I’m about a quarter finished with a third scarf using Red Heart Super Saver yarn in a shade of Soft Navy.<\/p>\n

\"Scarves<\/a>

Scarves 3 of 5<\/p><\/div>\n

There are two scarves in the Mulberry Mix shade (the pink and purple colors). One scarf is a simple garter stitch<\/a> scarf – casting on 36 stitches and knitting all stitches. The second Mulberry Mix scarf is knit in K2\/P2 rib<\/a> – I cast on 36 stitches, knitting and pearling every two stitches on each side. The blue scarf is also a K2\/P2 rib. The ribbing moves much slower than working in garter stitch.<\/p>\n

Along with challenging myself to make 5 scarves in October, I’m challenging my viewers to knit or crochet 5 scarves in the pattern(s) of their choice this month. All the scarves that I’m making will be donated to the charity Warm Up America<\/a>, but you can make items and donate them wherever they will do the most good — a local charity, a church group, a homeless shelter; basically any organization that accepts hand-made items and delivers them to those in need. This is a great way to help others, and use up yarn that you might have sitting around. I hope you will decide to craft something to donate as well! <3\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
