วิธีที่ 1 This is just a big tube of 2 skeins of Foxy by Red Heart - 50 sts on 9mm needles, garter for 4 rows, stockingnette till 15 yards of yarn left, then 4 rows of garter and BO. Cast on and bind off veeeery loosely, so I did both with 15mm needles. Stretch it lengthwise for a traditional scarf, or stretch it wide for a cowl, or stretch as wide as possible for poncho. //yarngear.blogspot.com/2005/04/magic-scarf-light-and-glue.html
วิธีที่ 2 How to make the magic scarf:
You need a round loom, how wide you want the opening will depend on the size you want. I have done one on the red kk, and a couple on the yellow kk. The red kk one opens up and form fits around the face. The yellow kk one opens up much wider and forms around the face like a cowl. People have used the blue kk to make a very small one or for children.
Use yarns such as fun fur, eyelash or some other that will have the same type of stretch (these are the two I have used). Before you begin leave a long piece of yarn to take off with. Some have mentioned up to five feet but I don't use quite that much.
Do a one over one for the length of the scarf you want with one strand (I have heard about two strands being used but I have only used the one).
When reaching the length, I have used two skeins to three skeins of yarn, work off till only one stitch is on all pegs.
Load a needle with the piece of yarn you saved and pick up all the stitches off the pegs (make sure you do not pull through the end of the yarn).
When all stitches are on the pickup strand, hold the two ends of the strand so that they can not come out of stitches. Now spread the end opening as wide as you can taking up excess of the strand (this is why you need a long strand), keep opening it as wide as it will go.
When that opening is as wide as you can get it tie off the two ends of the pickup strand and hide them.
Now the ends of this type of yarn are often very slick and can slide out so hide the ends far in. Some other peoples tips are to tie tight and cut the ends leaving some longer strands to match the ones around it. Or to put some washable frabric glue on the knots to hold them.
You are now done. Grasp the opening, either side, to pull it over the head. If the work is loose enough on some people it can even be pulled down around the neck and shoulders, for a tigher work only around the neck.
Now take the scarf off and run it through your hands compress it slightly. See it collapse back to a thin strip. It's magic. Now wrap around the neck for a regular type of scarf.
Wear this amazingly soft and stretchy cowl over your shoulders, around your neck or over your head. After playing with it for just a little while you'll find many exciting possibilities. Instructions: Cast on (very loosely) 68 stitches on size 11 24" circular needles. (You may want to cast on to needles two sizes larger to make sure it is loose enough.) Knit in the round to desired length. 2 balls will make a scarf approximately 35" long unstretched (approx. 41" long stretched). 3 balls will make a scarf approximately 53" long unstretched (approx. 62" long stretched). To retain the horizontal stretchiness of the scarf, do not bind off. Instead, cut the yarn leaving a 3 yard tail. Thread this tail on a tapestry needle and slide the stitches off the knitting needle onto the tapestry needle, to be held by the yarn tail. Once all the stitches are on the yarn tail, stretch the scarf opening as far as it will go, and tie off the tail to the first stitch. Rather unconventional, but it works!
