Free “Scrap” Pattern

January 2, 2013 by Sarah White

cecelia scarf wrapWhen you hear the word “scrap” in relation to knitting, you might think you’re dealing with a project that will help you use up little bits of your stash. Not so in the case of Cecelia’s Scrap Pattern, featured over at RosMadeMe. Here, scrap is a conflation of scarf and wrap and it’s a term for a cute little neckwarmer complete with ruffles, sparkles and a knit flower.

Cecelia is actually a friend of the blogger’s sister, who was the knitter behind the project, which also features cables and double moss stitch. That’s a lot in a little package, but it’s really cute and sure to keep your neck warm and fashionable on a winter’s day.

    Hey i have pinned lots of patterns from here and as i want people to make something for free so i am just pinning patterns that are free. I feel bad to see some pattern comes with a price and not all can afford. I am happy that you have put patterns for free.

Have you read?

A Sweet Skater Dress to Knit

I know knitting a dress sounds like a major time commitment. And that’s before I even tell you that this particular dress, the Sixth Ave Skater Dress by Briana Luppino, is worked in light fingering weight yarn. 

But would you just take a moment to look at it and tell me if it doesn’t look like it would be worth all the time you would spend knitting it? And it’s miles of stockinette stitch so it’s actually beginner friendly and a great semi-mindless knit you can take with you on your travels this summer and wear when it is done. 

The dress is worked from the top down with tank straps, a scoop neck, waist shaping and a flowy skirt for a fun and comfortable fit. 

The pattern has 10 sizes, with finished bust measurements ranging from 28 to 64 inches, or 71.5 to 163 cm. The sample shown was worked with 4 inches/10 cm of negative ease at the bust, and the designer says most people like between 2 and 6 inches/5 to 15 cm of negative ease in the bust and around 10 inches/25.4 cm positive ease in the hips. 

(To refresh your memory, negative ease means the measurement of the garment is smaller than your actual body measurement, while positive ease is bigger than your body.)

To pick a size you’d work from the bust measurement because you can always add more or fewer decreases as you need to get your desired fit at the waist and hips. And because it’s worked from the top down you can try it on as often as you like to make sure it’s the perfect fit. 

The I-cord edgings give the dress a super casual feel, and I think this would be a great one to add to your summer rotation. (Yes, even with a wool blend yarn.)

You can see lots of cute finished versions and grab a copy of the pattern for yourself on Ravelry.
