More Arm Knitting Creations!
Posted on November 3, 2012 by Maggie in DIY Projects, Knit and CrochetI made two more scarves! My Mother in-law is giving them as gifts and these are the colors and yarn she picked out. They are SUPER soft and so comfy and warm. I will definitely be making one for myself soon!
The materials I used:
Top scarf – Bernat Roving Yarn in the color Putty.
Bottom scarf – Bernat Roving yarn in the color Rice Paper.
I used two strands at one time when knitting so that requires to skeins of yarn for each scarf but it doesn’t use all the yarn.
How to:
Watch my arm knitting video here to learn how to arm knit.
Step 1:
Cast on 16 stitches
Step 2:
Knit until the scarf is long enough to wrap around your neck twice
Step 3:
I used a crochet hook to “sew” the ends together with the scarf inside out and then weaved the ends of yarn in with a yarn needle
These are the most simple scarves you can make but they look great and are so warm!
I do sell them for 20.00 each, so if you aren’t into DIY but would like one for yourself just leave a comment below and I’ll be in touch:)

I’m having a hard time with one step of the knitting process. It’s driving me crazy actually. The last stitch is driving me up the wall. I can’t seem to get it right. Please help me
The last stitch? Could you be a little more specific as to what you’re having trouble with and maybe I can help.:)
So when I make the first set of stitches of my right arm and o am then transferring them over to my left arm to start knitting. The last stitch on my right arm always messes me up. When I knit it, it never comes out right and I have this long extra yarn in the way for some reason when I go and pull it tight. I hope that makes sense.
Nevermind!! I figured it out lol!!!
Awesome scarf, great video how to!
hint: You can just purchase one skein and roll into two balls, that’s what I usually do when I buy yarn, so I can use to make my chunky knits.
