the finished scarf
# the scarf kind of lays flat around the neck when worn.The short row ruffle scarf
Materials:
-3-4 balls Lions brand Microspun 168 yds/2.5oz
-us size 8 knitting needles
Guage: 4.5 sts/inch in garter st., but it's a scarf so gauge should not matter
Cast on 34 sts, knit 2 rows. Start short rows as:
row 1. Slip 1 st, knit 11 sts, turn ( leave remaining sts on the left hand needle.
row 2. Sl 1, K11
row 3. sl 1, K10, turn
row 4. sl1, K10
row 5. sl 1, K9, turn
row 6 & all remaining even rows, sl 1, knit to end of row.
row 7. sl 1, K8, turn
row 9. sl 1, K7, turn
row 11. sl 1, K6, turn
row 13. sl 1, K5, turn
row 15. sl 1, K4, turn
row 17. sl 1, k3, turn
row 19. sl 1, K2, turn
row 20, sl 1, K2
at this point you will knit the sts up again;
row 21. sl 1, k3, turn
row 23. sl 1, k4, turn
row 25. sl 1, k5, turn
row 27. sl 1, k6, turn
row 29. sl 1, k7, turn
row 31. sl 1, k8, turn
row 33. sl 1, k9, turn
row 35. sl 1, k10, turn
row 37. sl 1, knit to the end of the row. This puts you on the other edge. Repeat the short rows from row 1-35. 2 short ruffles done!
knit 3-5 ridges - 1 ridge equals 2 rows of knitting.
Knit to desired length ending with 3 ridges.
NOTES:
1. I slipped the sts on the odd rows as if to knit & the even rows as to purl with the yarn at the back.
2. sl 1- slip 1 st
K- knit
3. you don't need to wrap the slip sts.
4. I placed a small pocket at one end of the scarf- optional
5. ruffle can be used for other things.

This pattern is soooo beautiful, Thank you so much for sharing, I'll let you know about my progress on my attempt :-D
Thanks a lot.If you come to any problems,pls let me know.
What a GREAT pattern!! Thank you so much for writing this up :)
For some reason mine is really ruffly. I am using a 10 size needle. So I guess that's why right?
it could be, but if it's too ruffly maybe space them out meaning knit maybe 4-6 plain garter sts in between the short rows. hope this helps.
I think I get it. When I knit 2 rows after finishing the 35 rows of pattern it really helps. Thanks.
