Room with a View scarf and wrap knitting pattern is easy to knit with worsted weight yarn. A 12-row repeat stitch pattern creates a modern geometric design that is reversible! It looks exactly the same on both sides. This design will work well for men or women.
The view from our house is definitely not postcard worthy. But, there are views to enjoy through the seasons: flowering trees in the spring, the lovely green of the garden in early summer and the explosion of fall color on old trees in October. My favorite view from my home studio is on the occasional winter day when large snowflakes fall from the sky and make it feel like I am in the middle of a snow globe.
“I’ve knit this pattern twice in the past year... the wide scarf for a friend and the wrap for myself. Love, love, love the pattern! ”
As of December 2021, this pattern has a rating of 5 out of 5 stars on Ravelry for clarity of instructions.
DIRECTIONS FOR FOUR (4) SCARF AND WRAP SIZES:
Approximate sizes after blocking…
Narrow Scarf: 7.5” wide x 64” long
Medium Scarf: 8.75” wide x 68.5” long
Wide Scarf: 12” wide x 62” long
Wrap / Shawl: 18.5” wide x 75” long
Any of the sizes may be made longer by adding pattern repeats. Each pattern repeat adds about 2” to the length of the project. Pattern includes estimates for additional yardage needed to make each size longer.
WORSTED #4 WEIGHT YARN:
Narrow Scarf: 400 - 420 yards
Medium Scarf: 520 - 540 yards
Wide Scarf: 610 - 630 yards
Wrap: 1200 - 1250 yards
The pattern may also be used with slightly lighter or heavier weight yarns. Select the needle size that gives the best appearance for your yarn. Finished size and amount of yarn needed may vary depending on yarn choice and gauge….so buy extra yarn just in case!
For the wide scarf shown, I used 3 skeins of Malabrigo Rios in the ‘Reflecting Pool’ colorway.
Stitch pattern looks attractive with solid color yarns, as well as gently variegated, hand dyed yarns such as Madelinetosh Tosh Vintage or Malabrigo Rios.
GAUGE:
Pattern stitch with US size 8 needles: approximately 18 stitches & 24 rows = 4”
I used US size 8 knitting needles. Choose the needle size that gives the best appearance with your yarn and your knitting tension.
Though exact gauge is not essential, this stitch pattern will look best with fairly tight stitches. A significantly different gauge may require more (or less) yarn.
KNITTING NEEDLES:
US 8 knitting needles or size that gives best appearance for your yarn and knitting tension.
Circular knitting needles recommended for making a wrap in order to comfortably accommodate the number of stitches.
Straight knitting needles may be used for making a scarf.
SKILL LEVEL: Easy
