This is the generic pattern I created and use to make Fun Fur scarves. By doing the increase and decrease rows in the beginning and end of the scarf, it gives the ends a more rounded appearance rather than stopping so abruptly. Generally I use size 15 or 17 needles with 5 to 7 stitches wide for the narrow scarves and 1 ora 2 skeins of Fun Fur. I've also made wider, more substantial scarves which could be used for warmth using 4 skeins of Fun Fur with double strands, size 10 needles and 14 stitches wide. Currently I am working on one with a strand of white and a strand of red which I can wear to the Wisconsin Badger football games we attend in the fall.
Cast on 2 stitches.
Row 1: Knit
Row 2: Increase in first stitch of the row (knit front and back) and knit across.
Repeat Row 2 until you have the desired number of stitches on your needle.
Knit in garter stitch to desired length.
Knit 2 stitches together at the beginning of each row until there are 2 stitches left.
Cast off.
This scarf took 2 skeins of yarn and was 7 stitches wide using size 15 needles. It is 2 inches wide and 60 inches long.
This scarf was made with 1 skein of Fun Fur and was 7 stitches wide using size 17 needles. It turned out to be 2.5 inches wide and 44 inches long.
