First of all, I don't claim any rights to the Norweigan Star Pattern. This pattern is based off of a generic pattern for a tube scarf and the Norweigan Star Earflap Hat pattern by Tiennie. Go check out her stuff 'cause it's really cool!
But what I wanted to do was to make a scarf for one of my friends to wear next winter, as winters here get pretty cold and those of us from down south aren't used to the snow...
This will be a nice project to work on because the majority of it is just stockinette stitch in the round.

Knitting in the roundInstructions:
Fair Isle
Following a chart
Using the Old Norweigan CO method, CO 80 stitches in MC. Join in the round.Well, there you have it! Hopefully this will be done in time for next winter!
Rows 1-10: k80
Rows 11-25: Work the Norweigan star motif in both MC and CC. You should work five motifs around in the circle.
Main Panel: k80 in MC until scarf is about seven inches shorter than desired length.
Finish up with one round (10 rows) of the Norweigan star motif in MC and CC, then 15 additional rows in MC. Bind off in knit.
Use a tapestry needle to weave in loose ends and sew up top and bottom.
For a child's scarf, CO 64 stitches and work motif four times around on each end.
