This next scarf is simple yet fun! I love the way multicolored yarn can make a knitting project look so unique! Rib stitch is fairly simple to do, there is just a ton of yarn movement.
You start out in a knit, purl pattern (an even number of stitches works best for this). The key is to make sure you continue the pattern properly. I tend to be a perfectionist and ripped out many rows on this scarf because I goofed on one stitch that threw off EVERYTHING!

| The scarf didn't quite look complete to me so I decided to add fringe. Plus knowing the person I made it for I believe she'll love it! |
 |
| Fringe is a new adventure for me, never having done it before. The most important part to me was making sure the fringe is all the same size. |
 |
| In order to do this I decided to use a glass coaster we have to measure and cut my yarn. |
 |
| To make the fringe a decent length I only cut at one end. |
 |
| I took three strands of the cut yarn in my yarn needle, pulled the yarn half way through, and tied a knot using all six strands. |
 |
The best part about the rib stitch is that it lays flat on it's own and doesn't need a border!
Happy Crafting!
