Dude, That Sucks

Yeah, no more mini-renovation at work. They changed their collective minds. Some of us are really pissed off because we made plans! That's right, when given a day off in the middle of the week, some people actually do something with their lives! That's okay, because I have another interview on Thursday.

On a completely different note, I've decided to post the pattern for the Little Spider Scarf. It's not difficult.


Yarn: Any colour of worsted weight yarn.
Needles: Pair of 5.5 straight needles (or another size of your choice – experiment!)

Pattern (multiples of 5 plus 6):

Rows 1, 3, 5, 7: K3, *move yarn forward, slip 5, move yarn back, k5*. Repeat * to * until 3 sts. remain. K3.
Rows 2, 4, 6: K3, purl across to last 3 sts., K3.
Row 8: K3.
*P7, Pick up loose strands on RS with right needle and slip onto left needle. Purl these strands with next st. P2.* Repeat * to * until 3 sts. remain. K3.

Rows 9, 11, 13, 15: K3, *K5, move yarn forward, slip 5, move yarn back.* Repeat * to * until 3 sts. remain. K3.
Rows 10, 12, 14: K3, purl across to last 3 sts., K3.
Row 16: K3.
*P2, Pick up loose strands on RS with right needle and slip onto left needle. Purl these strands with next st. P7.* Repeat * to * until 3 sts. remain. K3.

These 16 rows make up the pattern.

Scarf:

CO 36 sts. Knit garter st for 6 rows.
Knit pattern until scarf is 58 inches long.Knit garter st. for 6 rows. Bind off. Weave in loose ends.

I'd appreciate any feedback, if anyone decides to try this.
