Knit Jeans Scarf

I am always shopping for yarn, and during one of my trips to Joann, I discovered Lion Brand Jeans yarn. I instantly fell in love with this yarn, which comes in different shades of denim. Near the yarn, I also found several free patterns. The pattern for this scarf is called the Jeans Kassidy Scarf.  For this scarf, I used the Jeans yarn in shades Brand New, Stonewash, and Faded. These are the same shades used in the pattern, but Lion Brand Jeans yarn has other colors that you can use as well. I used about a half a ball of each. 
To create this scarf, you'll need the free knitting pattern for the Jeans Kassidy Scarf, size 8 (5mm) knitting needles, large blunt-eyed needlescissors, three shades of the Lion Brand Jeans yarn, and a stitch counter.

I followed the pattern, which is rows and rows of the garter stitch.

Since I was working on the scarf on Easter, I had some tea in my Easter Rae Dunn mug.

Each section has 24 knitted rows... [Rae Dunn Snooze mug... Can you tell I'm a Rae Dunn collector? 😀]

The scarf is worked in two strips, so after I finished the first strip, I immediately began working on the second strip. 

Once I finished both strips, I weaved in the ends, and then used a yarn needle to stitch the strips together.

All Done! The scarf is about 66 inches long and 7 inches wide.

 This yarn is really soft and light weight. I look forward to wearing this scarf in the fall.😁

Since I really enjoyed knitting this scarf, I plan to make another one for my Etsy shop really soon!
