Sew in the end pieces of yarn and wash. Your Acacia Scarf is now ready to give as a gift or wear with your favorite outfit.

If it is too long you can shorten the number of rows of garter stitch or you can get rid of the 12 size boxes created by knitting and purling 12 st, or the 20 row section of moss stitch.

When you block it don’t pull it too tight, and follow the care directions on your yarn!

Enjoy your scarves!!!

FOR THE SHORTER VERSION JUST CUT OUT THE GARTER STITCH. I will not email it anymore sorry.

This scarf was about 5 and 1/2 ft before I blocked then grew to 6ft when done.

After learning for some this pattern is too long, if you would like it shorter please comment on any of my posts with an email that I can reach you with and I will email a shorter version to you, sorry for the possible inconvienience.

Could you email me the shorter version instructions please and thank you? My daughter is a new knitter and has become a knitting FIEND! She loves the look of this but is petite. Thanks so much.

Hi Anna,
I haven’t knitted this scarf yet, but, since I’m a new knitter, it looks intriguing. I’m a little concerned, however, that it will probably be too long. Would you please email me the pattern for the shorter version? I am assuming also that this is done on a multiple of 12?
Thanks very much,
Andie

Would love to see the shorter version pattern as well. Please email to me! I am a new knitter and have taken on a project of a simple sweater, but it is taking a while to do and I think if I did a quicker pattern, it would encourage me to keep going! Thank you!
