Granny Triangle Scarf

Last week I found myself  disappointed with the beginnings of a knitted scarf done in Caron Cakes yarn, but this week I found a project that is perfect for them:

A Granny Triangle Scarf in the colorway, Funfetti


And another in the colorway, Cherry Chip


There is a mistake in Row 2 of the pattern - basically, there's an extra stitch sequence - that's pretty obvious as you're working it, but still...  it stopped me for a bit as I sorted out if the mistake was mine, or in the pattern.  I mention it in case anyone goes directly from here to the pattern - I figure if I can save someone a bit of time second-guessing their work, it's worth a mention.

The pattern uses one skein of Caron Cakes yarn.   An easy peasy project that makes a very satisfying finish!

    Love it!!!! I would have chosen the exact same colors! We are so on the same page! I've 'faved' it of course and now if I could only crochet as beautifully as you do! What fun projects. Have a great week my friend!

      So glad you like them, Sandra. These scarves are so easy to make. If I had a more of this yarn and a reason to make more of these scarves I'd probably make more. It's that easy and satisfying of a pattern to work up.

    Oh I agree, a much better project! This one just might convince me to pick up a cake...

      I don't know whether to be tickled I've possibly influenced you, or apologetic. lol I feel an ambivalence about these cake yarns. They're so pretty in the cake, and I think I want to make something(s) with them, but the abrupt color changes make them not all that great for crochet work, IMO. That said, there's a really cool-looking flower pillow I think I'd love to make someday with one of these yarns. I almost made one out of the Funfetti colorway, but in the end, something quick and easy won out. :)

      lol! As much as I enjoy cheese, I can't say I have a strong desire to work at making it. That, and I honestly don't think I could handle the long wait time for cheese to age. ;^)

    I have several of those cakes and am so happy to see how nicely they work up in this pattern. I added it to my library. Thanks, Becki.
