Classroom: Garter-Stitch Scarf & Sideways Handwarmers Using Manos Maxima

“A very good place to start.” This Churchmouse Classroom First Projects pattern is about as simple as it gets—just knit, knit, knit. When you turn garter stitch on its side, the little ridges create a ribbed effect that is nice and stretchy, making the handwarmers easy to fit, with just a wee bit of seaming around the thumbs. Handsome on men and women alike, these easy pieces make great gifts. From you, the knitter! PHOTO TUTORIALS IN THIS PATTERN: The anatomy of garter stitch Mattress-stitch seaming in garter stitch, end-to-end.
