Rib and Welt Knitted Scarf

I knitted another scarf to donate using a rib and welt pattern that I found here.


I used a Caron Anniversary Cake Special Edition (the colour is Gingerbread Forest) and 6.5mm needles.

I cast on 22 stitches (a multiple of 8 plus 6 for the edges).

Knit 3 rows. I followed this pattern, knitting 3 stitches at the beginning and the end of each row for an outside border.
  • Row 1 (RS): *K1, P1, K1, P5; rep from * to end. 
  • Row 2 (WS): *K5, P1, K1, P1; rep from * to end. 
  • Row 3: K1, P1, *K5, P1, K1, P1; rep from * to last 6 sts, K5, P1. 
  • Row 4: K1, *P5, K1, P1, K1; rep from * to last 7 sts, P5. K1, P1. 
  • Row 5: K1, *P5, K1, P1, K1; rep from * to last 7 sts, P5, K1, P1. 
  • Row 6: K1, P1, *K5, P1, K1, P1; rep from * to last 6 sts, K5, P1 
  • Row 7: *K5, P1, K1, P1; rep from * to end. 
  • Row 8: *K1, P1, K1, P5; rep from * to end. 
  • Row 9: P4, *K1, P1, K1, P5; rep from * to last 4 sts, (K1, P1) twice. 
  • Row 10: K1, *P1, K1, P1, K5; rep from * to last 7 sts, P1, K1, P1, K4.
  • Row 11: K3, *P1, K1, P1, K5; rep from * to last 5 sts, P1, K1, P1, K2. 
  • Row 12: P2, *K1, P1, K1, P5; rep from * to last 6 sts, K1, P1, K1, P3. 
  • Row 13: P2, *K1, P1, K1, P5; rep from * to last 6 sts, K1, P1, K1, P3. 
  • Row 14: K3, *P1, K1, P1, K5; rep from * to last 5 sts, P1, K1, P1, K2.
