Giant Garter Scarf
Our Giant Garter Scarf pattern is a great big deal that’s no big deal to knit up. It is high-impact, high-volume, high-drama, and high-reward… as both a presence and a present!
Consider its supersize comfort and coziness a secret-weapon for the season: Who doesn’t want a warm, fuzzy force field to take on chilly walks, unpleasant commutes, and complicated relatives?
Simple garter stitch (just knit, knit, knit) in our jumbo Gentle Giant yarn on US 19 needles hits all the right extremes in speed and satisfaction. Even very beginner knitters are equipped to appreciate the simplicity of this feat!
You’ll need eight skeins of our incredibly soft single-ply Gentle Giant yarn. Here we used the color Silver Mauve, pairing its subtle elegance with the scarf’s big personality.
But any of our 21 colors will make a statement: Super Yellow or Super Pink for super impact, Graphite Gray for oversize-but-understated chic, Sugar Maple for a toasty scarf that suggests logs, leaves, and lounging. This is a wrap that wraps up your year, and your special gift list, in grand finale style!
