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
Introducing: Our WORST sellers! 👎🏼 Get 50% off the things that made you go, “meh”. To see all of things, and maybe pick up something that you kinda liked, but didn’t FULL price like at YarnYAY.com (link in @vickiehowell bio.)...
It’s hard to believe it’s already been almost a year since Vickie’s Wednesday’s Snood pattern came out. We’re excited, though, to be able to revisit it with our new kits! Snap to it! (Link in bio, or go to YarnYAY.com)...
I am devastated by the loss of @hillcountryweavers founder, Suzanne Middlebrooks.
I wrote a longer tribute to her on my blog and Facebook (links in bio). In short, though, she had been sick for a long time but had been a master at not letting the illness get in the way of her living. So, it was often unimaginable that she wouldn't be with us for longer. Last June during an industry convention in Chicago when Susanne came over to the bar booth I was sitting at and plopped herself next to me to chat, I had no idea that it would be the last time I'd get to see her. I'm so thankful though, that when we parted ways to go back to our respective meetings, it was with a hug. Rest in purls, my friend....

Hi Leane,
I found an another link for the Star Stitch pattern. Hope it will be OK. The pattern is at the end.
