As almost all knitters will attest to, we always have a million works in progress (WIPs) that we need to finish. I have one that’s about 3 years old. However sometimes you want some mindless knitting that doesn’t require you to count stitches or lean over charts. I wanted to knit something late one night, preferably in bulky yarn, and something that would come out looking chunky and uber-fashionista.
INSTRUCTIONS Cast on 79 sts, slip last stitch to left hand needle and knit together with first stitch to join in the round. Work two rounds in 1x1 ribbing (K1, P1). Pattern Rnd 1: K1 below, p1; rep till end. Rnd 2: K1, p1 below, rep till end.
Repeat these two rows until you are almost out of I knit a moebius cowl using the fisherman’s rib yarn (scarf will be about 10in in height), knit two rows in 1x1 ribbing (K1, P1), and bind off loosely. a few times before, and wondered what it would look like without the twist, and with a few more stitches. Finishing Block lightly and enjoy the cushy softness of this So, instead of working on the projects that scarf you cast on for even though you have 10 other absolutely must be done by early December, projects to complete. :) I took a size 13 circular needle and cast on for this scarf. Which is why it’s called the procrastination-instant gratification scarf procragratification scarf. Enjoy!

HOW TO KNIT 1 BELOW (or PURL 1 BELOW)
Quite a few people have asked me what it means to Knit 1 below or Purl 1 Below. It sounds scarier than it sounds I promise, but I realized that for most people it is a pretty novel concept, and I apologize for not including anything about it in the pattern earlier. Below is a link to a YouTube video that shows how to Knit 1 below.
