I’m honored to be a part of Jade Sim’s upcoming book Craft Hope which, in conjunction with her website, promotes using craft for the greater good. As a contributor, I was allowed to choose a charity for my project to benefit. I decided to design a scarf to promote the Orphan Foundation’s Red Scarf Project, a program that gives each orphan entering college a red scarf to remind them that they’re not alone on their new journey.
Star Stitch Scarf
Jade released the pattern for the scarf on her website, so you can get knitting before the Orphan Foundation’s February 14th donation deadline. You can download the pattern here.
If you need a little helping hand with the Star Stitch, here’s a quickie demo.
Special thanks to Malabrigo for donating the yarn for this project!
Thank you so much for providing this pattern. I had a lot of fun knitting my red scarf and learning a knew stitch along the way.

Hi Vickie,
I began this scarf last year and set it aside 🙁 But I am ready to finish it up but I can’t get the pattern. The link on this site does not work anymore. Could you repost it (Red Scarf Star Knit Pattern)?
Thanks,
Leanne
YARNYAY! FALL BOX REVEAL:
Every season, YarnYAY! presents a new box for knitters who are ready to dive into a more in-depth project than our regular monthly boxes. For Autumn, we've gone mad for plaid, and are thrilled to have partnered with FOUR other (besides mine) woman-owned, small businesses. (Tap to see.)
We're shipping these box beauties on Tuesday 10/17 and only have a limited amount. Reserve yours today, in whatever palette speaks to you, and we'll get it to you ASAP. Link in @vickiehowell bio, or visit yarnyay.com...
Happy FriYAY! the 13th, Ghouls and Gourds! To celebrate we're giving you 13% OFF YarnYAY's spookiest kits and patterns. USE code: FRIYAYTHE13TH. Spooky sale item collecting link in @vickiehowell bio
FREE Pattern 🚨 Alert: The Ginger Spice Bi-Color Brioche Scarf! We couldn't resist whipping up this beauty out of the YarnYAY! October featured yarn @thefibrecompany &Make Aran (in colors Spill the Tea and Mon Ami). Make it to match either pair of the mitt patterns that come with our October Box, or make it on its own. You do you!
This pattern comes free with the purchase of &Make Aran yarn from our shop. Add the pattern to your cart, and the discount will appear at checkout. Who's feeling spicy? yarnyay.com (link in @vickiehowell bio).
The Forager wrist warmers by @hellogavriella (and featured in the YarnYAY! October Box) might be my favorite crocheted mitt pattern we've ever included in one of our monthly boxes. The wool/alpaca blend of @thefibrecompany &Make Aran yarn is the perfect medium for textured linen stitches. Oh, and the peek-a-boo detailing at the top-edges, is *chef's kiss"!
Treat yourself to the October Box to get this pattern (plus THREE more!), yarn, and a couple more awesomely autumnal items. Link in @vickiehowell bio (or go to yarnyay.com) to learn more.
