My daughter has introduced me to arm knitting & this scarf only took less then an hour to make..........well it takes me a little longer then it does her. But it turned out really well & can be worn single or doubled. I had to promise not to show her face she is "camera shy" lol which is incredably ironic as she is a professional photgrapher

It looks so warm and cozy. I have not heard of arm knitting either. Is there somewhere we can go to find instructions or a video? Hugs, Susan

Very pretty!
Don't know if I could do it without someone to help me, but I just googled "arm knitting" and this looks very instructive.

I used a 6 weight & I used 2 balls @ the same time. It also depends on the tension you create but 2 balls will be plenty as I have some left over.

Thanks for the information and link. it's fascinating and I've sent it to my grand-daughter in AZ to see if she is interested in creating a scarf for herself. Do they have cold weather in AZ enough to make this an interesting project???
