Knit Pom Pom Scarf Pattern – for Kiddos

March 2, 2018 by Ashleigh

Hi friends! I’m so excited to introduce you to Destiny from Knifty Knittings today. She’s the sweetest gal who designs gorgeous, approachable knits with the most perfect pom poms I’ve ever seen! Give her some love and enjoy her free pattern for this super cute kids pom pom scarf!

If you’d like to see the last Guest Designer Program post (a crochet pattern!) from another great yarnie, click here.

Hello there! I’m Destiny, the knitter and designer behind Knifty Knittings. I’m a born and raised Alaskan, living and knitting in Michigan with my husband and precocious toddler. You can find me and my designs over at Knifty Knittings!

I am a firm believer that pom poms make everything better. I designed this fun and simple scarf with my 3 year old in mind – I needed something that would stay put as she ran around and conquered snow hills, but also looked cute. The poms are cute, but also functional! Wrap the scarf around, tie the poms, and it won’t budge!

PATTERNS I LOVE (& you should too)

1. Crochet Homemaker Gingham Throw / 2. Crochet Everyday Cardigan / 3. Crochet Le Nuage Wrap/Triangle Scarf

I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick and Quick for this project, but any super bulky weight yarn (category 6) should work just fine. For a non-wool alternative, try Lion Brand Hometown USA or the new Lion Brand Thick & Quick – the cousin of WETQ now without wool! Let’s get started…

 

See this video tutorial for detailed start to finish instructions:

– This scarf begins at a point with 3 stitches. Increases are placed along both edges for the first several rows to form a triangle. Keep increasing until the scarf is as wide as you like (toddler sized instructions are written).
