I have spent the past three years knitting birthday scarves and felted purses for each of the 72 staff members at my library. I have tried to use a different yarn, technique or stitch with each scarf. I have included patterns for the scarves on my blog. When this project is done I'll start to knit more ambitious projects.

The Fuzzy Fuschia Scarf
When I bought this fuzzy yarn I asked everyone whose scarf it should become. Everyone said "Pamela", and so it is. This is her absolute favorite color.
I used Moda-Dea Tiara -3 balls - Pinky
and 2 balls of Bernat Frenzy in fuschia.
The pattern is called "Stamen Stitch". It's a slip stitch pattern. Any multiple of 2 plus 1 will work for this pattern.
Size 12 needles.
Holding both yarns together cast on 21 stitches.
Row 1 Knit
Row 2* Knit 1, with yarn in back, slip one purlwise; repeat from* ending with knit 1.
Row 3 Knit
Row 4 Knit 2, * with yarn in back, slip 1 purlwise, knit 1; repeat from * ending with knit 2.
Repeat rows 1-4 until the scarf is about 50 inches long. Bind off.
