I have finally written out a pattern for the chevron scarf I knit ages ago because a few people have been asking me about it. It’s really simple even though it looks quite complicated.
Abbreviations
Kfb: increase one stitch by knitting in the front and back loops of the same stitch.
Psso: pass the slipped stitch over the last knit stitch(es).
Chevron Stitch Pattern
Row 1: k2, *kfb, k4, sl1 knitwise, k2 tog, psso, k4, kfb; repeat from * twice, end with k2.
Row 2: k2, p39, k2.
Instructions
CO 43 sts
Row 1: k all
Rows 2 and 3: do chevron stitch pattern.
Row 4 onwards: repeat chevron stitch pattern until happy with the length of your scarf, ending with row 1 of chevron stitch pattern.
Last row: k all.
BO
Note: I used six colours and did six rows of the chevron stitch pattern in each colour, except the light green where I only did two rows.

[…] Chevron Scarf Pattern – This is a variation of a pretty common pattern, but I am REALLY digging the colors she used. I was actually thinking of a more narrow one using some royal blue, lime green, black, and white LB Microspun that I have hanging out in my stash. A nice year-round scarf. […]

Love it! One question though. I counted the stitches between asterisks and come up with 13, so should that section repeat three times rather than twice?
Thanks for sharing your pattern.

I’m having trouble with this, I cast on the 43 stitches, knit one row, but then when i go to do the next row i always end up with extra stitches left over, any suggestions on what i could be doing wrong?

You chevron pattern 1st row doesn’t come up with 43 stitches

Hi. I was wondering if this particular knitting pattern had a name and if you could maybe post a video up? It would be extremely helpful. I am trying to knit a scarf for a friend, and so far, this is my favorite pattern.
5 January 2010 at 9:08 am
do you have a video showing how to do this?
8 April 2010 at 12:16 am
Thank you so much for sharing this fantastic pattern!
My scarf is a huge success and it is exactly what I wanted 🙂
11 December 2010 at 5:40 am
I hope I can do this pattern does row 4 mean that you just continue with the chevron stitch pattern?

awesome! thanks. My LO asked for a zig zag scarf this morning, this is the one that ticks the boxes.

I am almost finished with this scarf which will be a gift for my daughter. Is there a way to bind off in the ripple pattern? It looks like the last row will be flat rather than rippled. I have enjoyed knitting this and I thank you for the pattern. I am a new knitter.

in row 2 of chevron stitch pattern, what does p39 mean?
9 July 2013 at 7:53 pm
I just finished knitting this scarf. P39 means, “purl 39 stitches.” Once I learned the pattern, it went well.
13 August 2013 at 7:03 pm
I was just wondering what size needle you used and what the number of stitches for the pattern was? (Multiple of what +what)
27 November 2013 at 2:06 am
Would love a video on how to knit this scarf! I don’t quit understand the Kfb
28 November 2013 at 6:02 pm
Check out You Tube for this stitch. or New Stitch A Day. It is easy once you get the concept. You take a regular knit stitch (the KF part). Then, without pulling the stitch off the left needle, you take another stitch through the back loop (KB). Then pull the two stitches off the left needle and you are ready for the next stitch. Once you learn the pattern, off you go. I still counted my stitches at the end of each row to make sure I was on pattern. Good luck

I think there’s an error in the decreases. Should be (sl2tog k1 psso) instead of (sl1 k2tog psso). That gets the centered decrease shown in the picture. Once I fixed that, I love this 🙂 Very easy to read my knitting and remember the pattern for start and stop knitting at work.

Row 2 the first time u do the chevron pattern there’s not enough stitches. Casted on 43 but I think you need 51. I’m confused.

hi
After which row add a new color??
30 December 2014 at 11:35 pm
You have the option of deciding how wide you want each color to be. You may want to play around a little to determine haw many rows you want each chevron to have. Then you change color at the end of each grouping of rows (which would equal one chevron, if I have my language straight). Good luck
17 February 2015 at 4:06 pm
Is the pattern repeat 13 +4?
18 April 2016 at 2:26 am
One place says you switched every 10 rows one says 6…Looks like 6 rows to me of each color correct? Also is 43 stitches too wide? I dont’ want more than 6 inches wide. Thanks. I am excited to make my first chevron soon.
