                                     A  Double  Knit  Scarf  Pattern

                                                                                                      Size 7” Wide x 62 ½’’ Long Supplies 1 Skein Simply Soft (Black) 1 Skein Simply Soft (Ocean)   Or 315 yds of worsted weight yarn in each color. (Depending on length, maybe less)   2  Stitch markers  (Optional) Size 7 Needles (4.55mm) Gauge It’s a scarf not that important. Pattern Cast on 30 sts + 2 (for edge stitches). So all together (both colors) you should have 64 stitches. 60sts for the pattern repeats and 4 for the edges stitches. The first and last stitches are NOT charted you can began and end with any  color you want but keep the colors consist.  Began with row 1 of the chart, place a stitch maker between every 10th stitch to better keep track of the chart. Repeat chart until end of row. At the end of each row with both yarns in back slip one color, bring both yarns in front slip the last color. Before beginning row, twist yarns together to keep the two sides of the fabric together. Once you work the chart a few times it is easy to memorize.  When you get the length you desire for your scarf bind off.

                  I made a video showing how the end stitches are slipped. You can watch it here.
