“I need something I can wrap around my face while I’m working,” is what I was told. So I have a new task. 
It’ll be pretty when it’s done!

What a nice stitch pattern for your labor of love!
Very nice, that’ll keep a neck warm. Looking forward to a picture of the FO.
That’s nice, I like the stitch pattern, it will make a tight weave that’ll keep him warm.:cheering:
Thanks. I really like how it is being as wavy as it is. 
I asked him if he wanted the wavy pattern throughout the whole scarf or if he wanted it as a pretty ending piece and the a “normal stitch” throughout the rest. He looked at me and blinked and was like, “Yes, sure, that’s good.” lol He doesn’t care as long as it can cover his head the whole way.
I’ll make sure to add the finished project when it’s done.
Thanks! I got to go yarn shopping today and that made me really happy. Yay for sales at Michael’s. 12 skeins of yarn for about $25. 
What stitch is that? I like it!
It’s going to be lovely, and bargain yarn, too. Who could pass it up?
K2, P2, K2, P2, over and over and over and over and over again.
Everything can be made awesome, even if it’s quite a bit cheaper than normal. :woohoo: Shopping is fun!
When something that great is a bargain too, total plus! Do you knit the knits and purl the purls or purl the knits and knit the purls? It doesn’t look like ordinary 2x2 rib to me.
I’m a left-handed knitter, so everything I do looks different than what people are used to. 
I just K2, P2, K2, P2, etc as I normally do, so… I’m not sure. I feel like I should take pictures of the way I do stuff, or make videos of it, so that other left-handed knitters don’t feel so alone. hehe
It’s great to have a left handed knitter in residence so to speak. Occasionally someone asks about how to knit left handed here and even the lefties tend to knit right handed. I searched for links and they were hard to come by, so I saved a few to my blog thread, Grumpy Gramma’s Useful Stuff, in hopes of finding them when they’re wanted. Just now I Googled [I]knitting left handed[/I] with better results. If you can add something to the available resources, go for it! The few things I had come up with are in post 68 on page 19 of my blog thread.
I also thought this was a moss stitch or a seed stitch and not a rib! How many stitches did you cast on Lauren? An odd or an even number?
It’s a great start!!
I have noticed throughout my research of how to do certain stitches that I have to do them step by step and teach myself how to do them “backwards.” It happened with my sweater that I made for Maya too because when I saw appearing in front of me was “backwards” of what was appearing in the pictures the author had taken. It’s all good. It just means I make unique looking things. hehe
I cast on 30 stitches then started with K2 and wound up ending with K2. I noticed too that it didn’t look exactly like what I was seeing on my computer screen, but two things ran through my mind.
1 - I didn’t care. :roflhard:
2 - I liked how it was turning out regardless.
Thanks!
OK, then with an even number CO I surmise you K the P’s and P the K’s. Creativity rules!!! 
Okie doke. Yes, when I flip it over to do the next row, I just keep with K2, P2, K2, P2, because when I don’t then it turns into the checkered scarf I did. I’m still learning stitches. All I know is that regardless of “which side I’m on” (RS or WS) I still K2, P2, K2, P2, etc.
We’re all still learning. 
I’m only going to keep knitting until there’s nothing more to learn about it. I think I’m good for the rest of the week anyhow. 
:teehee:
I’m getting ready to knit some scarves and hats for my cousin and her host family (she is an exchange student in Germany for a year), so that’ll be fun too!
Looks so cozy so far!
What matters, Lauren, is the finished piece. Usually when it’s done, you should not be able to tell if it was done by a right or a left hander. Generally speaking though, while you’re working it will generally be a mirror image of what a right hander would do. All in all, looks like you’re off to a great start, and I too look forward to the finished object.
