Finnished my First Hiking Scarf

I finnished my first Irish Hiking Scarf last night.

I really enjoyed knitting it, I used varigated 8ply yarn on 4.5mm needles.

I roughly measures 5ft long and 6 or 7 inches wide. It was partly frogged several times but the pattern was relatively easy.

My name is Debbi and I have just begun my first Irish Hiking Scarf today! I have never worked cables before and I LOVE this pattern…

And a hat to go with it

This all started because I wanted a hat. Someone else had already made a hat called the Irish Walking Hat that looks very different but also goes with the scarf but I just don't look good in that style. I like something with a little more shape built into it.

So, here is the finished product. It's in Wool Ease Bulky in Willow and took less than one skein. I lined it with fleece to make it warmer.





Sort of pattern-ish directions are on my blog at schoolcookworkknit.wordpress.com

Two Hiking Scarves

Hi all! Finally, blogger let me join in. I made two IHS this past winter, one for a friend and one for the red scarf project. The first was made with a green wool from Joann's Sensations brand, the other with plain old red heart. Although the red is soft, the green was much more enjoyable to work with and the cables absolutely pop. Here they are

Finished At Last!

I have finally finished the Irish Hiking Scarf I started a couple years ago. I don't know why it ended up in a stash drawer because I really enjoyed this pattern. The yarn was a cheap yarn - WoolEase. A nicer yarn would have made the cables "pop" more than they did with WoolEase. I will definitely knit this again at some point with a yummier yarn!

Second Scarf Complete

I loved making the first one so much, that I made one for me! Patons Soy Wool Stripes, Natural Pink. Size 9 needles. It took about 3 and 1/2 skeins. I'm using the leftover to make a headband/ear warmer to match. This is a very soft, warm yarn!

Hoorah! I'm done too!

I recently finished my Irish Hiking Scarf.
I really like the pattern. It was great to knit while vegging out in front of the tv with my boyfriend.
I used Bernat 100% acrylic. I steamed it so it would be soft and fluffy.
I gave my IHS to my mom.
I also have pictures of the progress on flickr.
