Reversible Silver Thaw Scarf – October 21, 2010
This scarf happened by accident. Using a free Silver Thaw One Skein Scarf pattern I got with my yarn purchase at the Fiber Factory in Mesa, AZ, I started knitting. Looking at the directions ended and started there, I just kept knitting. Until … after a 2 or 3 week break in working on the scarf, I referred back to the directions again. I follow them exactly and it didn’t look the same. Frogged and knit several times and decided I would go to the Fiber Factory for other eyes to see my error. No one could figure it out, until Susan Clark one of the owners took over. She found that I had skipped row 4, thus the creation of the Reversible Silver Thaw Scarf.
Here are the directions:
