Irish Knit Scarf Pattern and Kung Fu Panda

Yesterday I took the kids to see Kung Fu Panda! It was a really cute movie with really good ideas behind what was being said in the movie. If you get a chance check it out!

Okay here it is. The first craft pattern. I cannot take credit for creating this pattern. It is a very basic pattern and has probably been around since the beginning of knitting. It is very classic and a great take along with you project. Some examples are in my slideshow. One is green and one is a plum color. It is also great for beginners:

Irish Knit Scarf

Supplies

Size 17 or 15 knitting needles (I prefer bamboo or metal)
One Skein of Wool Ease Thick & Quick (any color you choose...other yarns may be substituted as long as they are a bulky weight)

Pattern:

Cast on 17 stitches
Row 1 Knit
Row 2 Knit 1 Purl 1 -repeat to end of the row...

Repeat rows 1 and 2 until you are almost at the end of the skein.
Bind off on a knit row. Weave in the ends.


If you get stuck or are a beginning knitter there is a video on the right hand side of the blog to show you how to knit and purl.

I would love to see some of your projects. Feel free to post them in comments or email me and I will include them in a future post!
