To cast on 300 sts use a long circular needle of 80 cm / 32 inches.
Is that what I know as the ‘old Norwegian cast on’? Which type of cast off do you use? I know it’s important your cast on and bind off match well in a scarf like this so one side isn’t tighter from experience. Lovely scarf 🧣
@@KnitzyKitzy it looks like he was using the long tail cast on.. I could be wrong
@@melissajenkins9960 they look very a like in motion but the Norwegian is stretchier. I’d love to know which they use.
@@KnitzyKitzy We usually use long tail
@@ARNECARLOS thanks. Which cast off do you pair it with?
I love seeing you so happy and laughing 😅
Thank you for watching Cecilia!
Lovely lovely lovely! but Arne! tis is all the yarn you need for the icord machine!!!!! Take care guys - so glad you like the book! xxxxx
😂💗Thank you Kate!
Carlos does look great in those colors!
😍
I’ve been meaning to thank you for introducing me to Kate from the Last Homely House. She is lovely and so fun to watch! I’m learning loads from her! Thanks again!
Hello Katherine! Isn’t Kate an absolute sweetheart! She has kept me sane over the last year or so. She has such a very special way of speaking to ‘you’, as if there’s just the two of you chatting over a cuppa. I too am so grateful to have found her! X
Thanks to Arne & Carlos MANY of us now sit on Kate's Lime Green Couch at The Last Homely House! I'll pass the pot to fill your 🍵! ❤️👵🏻❤️
I've been knitting for years and the idea that I can knit a scarf with built-in fringe just makes me giddy. Thanks so much!
You are welcome Teresa!
Very short tutorial! Not only do you have the shortest knit scarf in the world, you may have the shortest tutorial in the world! Love the idea of doing the fringe as shown in your tutorial!!!
🤠
Fantastic idea! If knitting a 300 stitch row is too daunting, I'm sure this could be scaled down to make beautiful place mats.
Yes!
what a fabulous idea!! Thank you!
Wonderful idea!!
I have just finished knitting my "Easiest Scarf In The World". I used a variety of colors of worsted weight yarn from my stash, including both bright and muted colors to avoid a crayon box look. The scarf is 8.5" wide and 84" long. That length is OK because I am 5'9" tall and can wrap it this way and that to a comfortable length. Next time I make this scarf in worsted weight yarn I will cast on 250 stitches instead of 300. That will result in a 72" scarf. For a 60" scarf, you'd cast on 200 stitches if using worsted weight yarn. I knitted this scarf flat, using two Size 9, 40" circular needles like a pair of straight needles. This scarf was way too bulky to knit flat using only one circular needle.
A most enjoyable knitting project. Thank you for the inspiration, Arne and Carlos
You are welcome and we are glad you enjoyed it!
I’ve got so much left over yarns that I’ll be starting this today! You guys are great! 🤗😘
Excellent!!! 😍
@@thethriftyfawn We hope you enjoy it!
@@ARNECARLOS I enjoy EVERYTHING you guys post! The world is so fortunate to have BOTH OF YOU!
😊❤❤👍
Yes, I was thinking this is a great leftover project. I have lots of single balls of Robin dk, but Robin went bust last year so I'm determind to clear out my stash of all Robin. This will be great towards that goal.
Loved making the scarf. Made it with 4 different colors. Each stripe was 1.5" widw. I cast on 250 sts on a #11 needle. It was 7" wide by 68" long. Love it!
Needle was 29" long for the 250 sts
Thank you for sharing!
I love Arne's cardigan; blues are my favorite.
Thank you!
Thankyou. I went to the search button for an easy scarf . I was looking for some quick knit (for a birthday gift) and your tutorial came up. I was over the moon happy! Already casted on! ❤ I definitely missed this video although i discribed many years ago. Thanks so much!
You are welcome! It is super easy
What a lovely idea. Thank you and I am going to make these scarves for next Christmas gifts. I have watched you from the start, and although I do not often comment , I consider you to be the friends I follow.
Thank you for supporting us Jeannie, we are glad you are a part of our ARNE & CARLOS family! We are doing a LIVE chat during our Sit and Knit for a Bit tomorrow, we hope you are able to join us!
Whaaaat??? Built-in fringe? GENIUS!!
Simplifies things!
As much as I love knitting, I love you guys more!
❤️❤️
Carlos you're a mind reader, I'm wanting to learn to knit (as self taught learning crochet), the scarf is a perfect item to start with. I love the way Arne is so fast with his knitting. Both brilliant people. Hope you both doing ok now.
Arne is amazing....he's been knitting for more than 50 years.....Terri Clarke, keep knitting and as the years go by you too will get as good and fast as Arne....i'm a self taught crocheter and knitter (21 years crocheting, 5 years knitting) and i was just amazed this past week when i thought back to the very first knitting project i did and then i looked at the project i had in my hands this past Friday...it's amazing how different things are now....keep knitting and crocheting....pass your work down to you children, grand children, nieces and nephews....every project you work on is art....and it contains a piece of your heart
I will try to learn this. I want to knit. I taught myself to crochet.
We are doing a lot better, have fun knitting!
@@ilahmurphy2742 If you taught yourself to crochet, you can certainly teach yourself to knit! There are so many resources out there! And once you get the main idea, study Arne and Carlos's Norwegian technique; it is very good!
@@ARNECARLOS good. I will do
I'll never forget my first scarf. I was 8. A friend taught me the knit stitch and I picked a vibrant red yarn and made a scarf that I wore every winter. I loved making it and to this day when I see that color I get the same buzz it gave me to make it and wear it. Love.
Thank you for sharing you story!
Dream come true for using up yarn. Thanks!
You are wwlcome!!
You guys are feeling giggly today! Glad to see you both looking happy and content.
My children love my scarves and I love making them. I've always made them vertically, never thought if horizontal. Urgh so simple!! I can't wait to make these. Thank you both.
Happy knitting!
Arne you are too funny telling people mot to steal the yarn! You guys make me laugh!!!
This a great idea for the left over bits of yarn that can't bed used for much of anything else.
Love that there's no ends to weave in.
It saves a lot of time
Perfect project for leftovers yarn!!!! Stay safe!!!
That is true!
Wow I might be able to do this one. My sister could knit like a wild woman. I never could figure it out. I love this.! Thank you
You are welcome Judy!
So easy but so beautiful! It is a great scrappy knit project
Yes!
I am catching up on all your videos. Thank you for teaching me so much xx
You are welcome Susan!
Your brainstorming about I-cord use has gotten me thinking as well. Like the idea to add to other knitted items ie. pillows or hats or even sweaters perhaps. I've been knitting your Reine hat for a Christmas gift while watching this video. Thank you so much for a delightful morning.
Thank you Kathy, and that is a great idea!
I'm thinking of making a table runner in this manner with perhaps a cotton yarn or blend. Something washable on delicate cycle since I hope to have the 4 little grandchildren around the table again soon! I started the scarf using my scraps. It's like a walk down memory lane. It took the entire 300 plus stitches for me to figure out what I'd made with a certain beautiful purple yarn. I finally remembered that it was used for a spiral scarf, my first experience with short rows. I overestimated my long tail so I kept casting on beyond the 300. One of these rows, I'll actually count them! This is a fun project, especially one I can put down and pick up when I'm waiting for yarn to arrive for a project. Thanks Arne & Carlos!
Such a good idea with the table runner!
Simple scarf is an understatement, simple and fabulous
Way too sweet! Arne is adorable! Great humor. Great couple:) knitting tips very professional.
What a joy!
Hi guys I knitted a scarf hat and mittens in the style for my baby granddaughters now 11. They were in purple turquoise and blue extremely cute.They still are but won’t let you say so. Good video. Marion.
I love watching you, a ray of sunshine for my day .
Glad you liked it!
I love this scarf! I haven't knit since 5th grade, when I would knit in class and the teacher would take my knitting and scold me. I could listen much better if my hands were busy. I hope schools have changed. Thank you so much for sharing.
You are welcome, and you should knit again!
@@ARNECARLOS Maybe I will knit again one day! Right now I crochet, sew, do embroidery, watercolor and paper crafts.
Sometimes it's 'great to have some super simple patterns. Great stash buster. Thank you!
You are welcome!
Just love you Guys!!!!
I really want to go on your knitting cruises as soon as they open ,I watch your channel all the time , Thanks for all you do for us in this time of not traveling . I feel like I' m there with you Both . Im in Cleveland , Ohio USA
What a genius idea for a simple beginners' scarf!!
great fun!!!love your new logo with Frea and and new friend Helmer
Super-fun project! I am going to start a knitting ministry at my church, and this would be a great way to teach novices to knit. Hoping to knit lots of warm winter gifts for the homeless in our community. 🧤🧦🧣
Such a great project!
OMG I am currently doing a stash bash and knitting a garter stitch diagonal wrap!!!!! Great minds think alike.
Today must be use up your scraps day, I just finished watching Kate at The Last Homely House, she had a beautiful scrappy quilt project going. Looks like I will be starting two projects today.
Thank you, have a great week.
Yeah! The Pryms I bought are 32 inches. Love the fringe knots. Thanks!!
You are welcome!
Thank you for your time!
Thank you! I crochet and I want to knit a jumper but have zero knitting skills. This might lessen the fear of the two needles 😱 I watched Arne knitting a Christmas ball with four needles yesterday ... That's a super power for sure!👏
Arne I love your sweater very much I am learning how to knit i crochet which I love but I think if I learn to read knit pattern I will also like it
How pretty! Love the colors!
I am crocheting a blanket using the same technique. With crochet I am changing the color on every row. I didn’t know how to make it work for knitting so thank you so much for the tutorial. I love making scarves for gifts.
You are welcome!
What a fabulous idea!
I'm more of a crocheter, but this inspires me to do some knitting again!
Thank you! This would be a great scrappy project.
A stash buster
Even good for experienced knitter for some mindless knitting. I am blind in one eye and have arthritic hands. This is a new idea for me. Love love love ❤️
That is very true!
I am totally going to try this scarf what a great way to use up odds and ends!
It is a great yarn buster!
I love the sweater ARNE is wearing!
Queridos! You have inspired me so much to live a "bigger life." You are so filled with projects, ideas, activities, garden, home, dogs, nature, walking, knitting, crocheting, cooking, reading, enjoying a creative life. I was on your last Hurtigruten cruise, but not as a member of your group. I only found out about your group after I boarded. I got off in Kirkenes and didn't go back down the coast. What memories of last year at this time. Big love from Chicago!
Yes, it has been a crazy year, so funny that you were on the cruise at the same time.
I have an afghan made by my grandmother and I think she used the same method--fringe is on the side rather than top and bottom. So comfy!
Thanks so much, Arne and Carlos I love this patter for school colors.
Arne! I absolutely love! Love! Love! Your sweater!
You and Carlos bring sunshine into my days!
Thank you so much!
i just love watching you both and the cemetery between you! I'm knitting socks because of you two.
Thank you
OMG this is genius! I always struggle to tie fringe! This is 😍 perfect! Now I just have to raid amazon for the right length needle! THANK YOU! New subbie!
Welcome to our channel!
I have a friend from work who wants to learn to knit, this will be a great item for her to begin with. Thank you for sharing!
You are welcome!
YAY! I was looking for something quick, easy and beautiful to do! --KateColors
Have fun!
After seeing your video I knitted a scaled down version for a child. I sat for two whole days knitting it,practising the Norwegian style.
I know have to rest from knitting as have a sore shoulder!
I found your videos in the first lockdown . You both have kept me company through 2020 and now 2021. I have tried lots of new techniques thanks to you.
I knitted my first scarf when I was 8yrs old in 1959. It was so badly knitted I was not allowed to take it home. It didn't stop me though. Xx
I like this pattern for a change. I've never done a scarf lengthwise...always widthwise. Also, a great stash buster! Thank you for the idea!
Great pattern for scrap yarn!
The Easiest Scarf in the World also a great stash buster! Thank you...
You are welcome!
This looks like a great project to knit up while watching a movie or attending a community meeting.
And Knitting lengthwise resolves the issue horizontally knit garter scarf stretching longer with use.
You guys have such great ideas love em!
Arne has the giggles! Love your cardigans.
Thank you Lore!
This goes to show that a project doesn't have to be complex to be beautiful!!! You guys are great! Thank you for another wonderful video
You are welcome Jennifer!
Happy Sunday
To you too Janika!
Great way to practice Norwegian knitting too! Love the colours
You really got my attention when you said "easiest", I love this scarf and your contrasting color choices. Arne, your sample looks like it would make a cute coaster. I could see these turn into a table runner, or dresser scarf? a doll blanket for my grand daughter to play with, oh so many possibilities! Thank you for your inspiration :)
You are welcome!
Nice and easy. What a clever idea ❤️
Easy peasy!
Thank you for this quick and easy tutorial Arne and Carlos. Very clever idea to do the fringe at the same time too. Love the colors of the completed scarf. Take care and be safe.
You are welcome Saroj!
two words: simple genius!....big hugs for two of you, Ursa
Thank you!
Arne is so funny, love watching you 2 together. Keep up the great work ❤️❤️
Thank you!
Very nice, great way to use up our left over yarns and end up with a quick gift for someone. Thank you
Beautiful scarf you could make a small throw and keep warm while knitting . On a 60 length needle.
Good idea
Nice way to use up scraps of yarn and have a lovely scarf when finished!
Very true!
this technique is amazing...i once crocheted an "Apache Trail of Tears" blanket with the technique of starting every row on the right of the rs and leaving enough yarn on both ends to tie together at the end of the project....also don't forget you want to leave each end at least 12 inches/30 cm so that you can have enough yarn to trim....do this for any knitted or crochet project that has fringe on the sides
Thank you!
I am also on the Tinna bandwagon along with the Arne and Carlos bandwagon. Apache Tears pattern was in the first project and very easy.
Looking good, as always 😉
What a nice scarf! Thanks for sharing with us! ****
You are welcome!
Great idea to match hats for presents.
Wow!!!! YES!!!!!!!
Great idea!
Love your playful sides of love 🎶🙃😊🎶
😀
Love 💕 this pattern. We need to teach this type of crafts in our schools here in the US. You guys are wonderful 😘😘.
Sweet and simple. Thanks
You are welcome!
Love the new intro photo of the whole family! 😘
Thank you!
Very stylish! I love the colours on the finished scarf.
Thank you!
Love the fact there is no need to weave in the ends! What a great idea for leftover yarns. I am looking forward to trying this.
Have fun!
Hello Arne and Carlos. Love your scarf pattern and the colours that you have chosen. You suit a scarf Carlos. It's clever how the fringe is made too. Thanks for a great podcast. I do really enjoy seeing them. Take care xxx
Thank you for watching Annie!
Beautiful!
Don’t steal it! Ok. Hey, this is a fun idea for bits and pieces, thanks. I made a long scarf last year in linen stitch so it could be flipped - but didn’t make the fringe. Yours is a cool idea. I’d show you mine, but I am impatient with Instagram. Now - I’m going to start making eggs. Xxx
Have fun!
I laughed. Do not steal he says. I am guessing if you are a beginner knitter, you might know a knitter or crocheter with scrap yarn to offer. This would be very cute 1/2 or 2/3 one color and accent stripes!
The first thing that I knitted was a scarf using the same technique, many years ago! I don’t know if you ever saw Dr Who when Tom Baker was the Dr, well he had a very long scarf and I just kept knitting until mine resembled his. I may still have the scarf somewhere. . . . Great episode. Be well 🌹
❤️🎊
Love it! Great scrap buster. Just bought the eggs pattern. Can't wait to knit some eggs with you guys! Thanks & Blessings
Very easy! And so nice! 👍
Thank you!
Lovely scarf and the perfect pattern for me. I've been knitting for years but I've never got beyond the basics of knit and purl. So I mainly knit scarves and blankets.
Then this project has your name on it!
Yes!! 😀
Great idea. Than you love it .
I love you guys!
💗
I am so happy you shared this video, because I am one of those that never knitted in my life, but would do anything to learn.. I saved this video so I can go back to it.. thank you Arnie and Carlos
Do it, it is a good project for beginners.
