"Brenda from Coffs Harbour has made a gorgeous scarf!  Here is a note from her to help you make one yourself...
"I knitted a scarf in 2 hours from cast on to cast off.  There’s one on the counter at Caba’s.  They help you choose your colours and reminded me how to cast on….the needles are as thick as broomsticks but so fast & fun.
The pattern is:
Needles 25mm. 
Using 3 yarns knitted together, (at least 2 of them should be 12 ply or more.
I used 1 ball of 20 ply, 1 ball of 14 ply and one ball of 12 ply) cast on an odd number of stitches. (I used 7)
All rows are the same:
Knit 1, *yarn forward, knit 2 together, *repeat to end of row.
Knit in pattern until long enough & cast off.

Brenda M. Coffs Harbour"
