Bias Garter Scarf - half done


Here is a picture of my scarf! A few tips. If you are confused about which side of the scarf you are on, put a marker close to each edge on the front side and move it up as you knit. This way you will know when you are on the increase/decrease side. Also, it is a good idea to count your stitches as you knit, your stitch count never changes.


Take a look at your edges. On the increase side, you will notice a small hole. The decrease side looks different. Perhaps you have noticed that I placed the increase and decrease 1 stitch in from the edge. This helps keep the edge neat. You could place them 2 or three stitches in from the edge.
Have fun knitting this scarf! By the time you finish it, you will be an expert at increasing and decreasing.
