Things You'll Need:
- Polar fleece Rotary cutter and mat Large ruler Large knitting needles
-
Step 1
Use a rotary cutter, mat and ruler to cut long, narrow strips from your polar fleece. Cut strips the same width, but widths from approximately 1/2 inch to 1 inch will work well for to knit a scarf from polar fleece. Cut with the grain of the fabric. The total amount of yardage required will depend upon how long and wide you want your final knit polar fleece scarf.
-
Step 2
Knot strips together securely and roll all of your polar fleece strips into a ball as you would yarn. Wind the knots into the balls as you roll your newly created polar fleece yarn.
-
Step 3
Cast on the desired number of stitches. A knit polar fleece scarf will be quite bulky, so it is unlikely that you will need to cast on more than 20-30 stitches. Knit all rows or choose a patterned stitch if you prefer. Keep in mind that there will be minimal stitch definition in a scarf knitted from polar fleece, so avoid anything but very simple patterns.
-
Step 4
Knit to the desired length. It is better to err on the side of length and any scarf should be at least 5 feet to 6 feet long to allow for adequate warmth and make sure the scarf stays in place on the wearer's neck.
-
Step 5
Bind off your stitches. Add polar fleece fringe to your knit polar fleece scarf if desired, using the same color or a contrasting one. Wash and dry flat.
