Kinsey Millhone Knitted Scarf

The Kitchen Sink Shop creates a different dish cloth pattern every month and I adapted this month's into a scarf to donate. The year's theme is mystery sleuths and this month, tough talking, street smart private investigator Kinsey Millhone from the Sue Grafton series is the design inspiration. I enjoyed this series and was sad when she passed in 2017.

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

I cast on 22 stitches. 

• Knit 4 rows in garter stitch
• Row 1 (and every odd row): S1 knitwise, K21
• Row 2: S1 knitwise, P to last stitch, K1 
• Row 4: S1 knitwise, P2, *K4, P2* to last stitch K1 
• Row 6: S1 knitwise, P2, *K4, P2* to last stitch K1 
• Row 8: S1 knitwise, P to last stitch, K1
• Row 10: S1 knitwise, K2, *K1, P2, K3* to last stitch, K1 
• Row 12: S1 knitwise, K2, *K1, P2, K3* to last stitch, K1 
• Repeat rows 1-12 until the scarf is the desired length
• Repeat rows 1 and 2 once more
• Knit 4 rows in garter stitch
• Bind off
