Knit the most comfortable dickey scarf for everyone!

How to Knit the Most Comfortable Dickey Scarf

If you're looking for a cozy, versatile accessory to add to your winter wardrobe, a dickey scarf is the perfect choice. This hybrid garment combines the warmth of a scarf with the convenience of a dickey, making it an ideal accessory for chilly days. In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the process of knitting your own dickey scarf, from selecting the right yarn and needles to finishing and styling your finished piece. Let's get started!

Materials You'll Need

  • Worsted weight yarn (approximately 200-300 yards)
  • Size 8 knitting needles
  • Tapestry needle
  • Scissors

Step 1: Cast On

Begin by casting on 64 stitches using the long-tail cast-on method. This will create a wide enough base to cover your chest and neck while still fitting comfortably under your jacket or coat.

Step 2: Knit the Ribbing

Next, you'll knit the ribbing for the collar. This will help the dickey scarf stay snug around your neck and keep the cold air out. Knit every row in a K2, P2 rib pattern until the collar measures approximately 2 inches in length.

Step 3: Switch to Stockinette Stitch

After you've completed the ribbing, switch to stockinette stitch by knitting every row until the dickey scarf measures approximately 8 inches from the cast-on edge. You can adjust this length to suit your own preference, but keep in mind that a shorter scarf may not provide as much coverage or warmth.

Step 4: Knit the Neckline

To create the neckline, you'll need to divide the stitches into two sections. Knit the first 32 stitches onto a separate needle or stitch holder, and then knit the remaining 32 stitches. You'll be working with the second set of stitches for the neckline.

Continue working in stockinette stitch on these 32 stitches for approximately 3-4 inches, or until the neckline reaches the desired depth. Then, bind off these stitches and set them aside.

Step 5: Rejoin the Stitches

Rejoin your working yarn to the remaining 32 stitches, and knit in stockinette stitch for approximately 8 inches, or until this section matches the length of the first section.

Step 6: Create the Back

Once both sections are the same length, you'll need to create the back of the dickey scarf. To do this, you'll join the two sections together by knitting across all 64 stitches in a single row.

From here, you'll continue knitting in stockinette stitch for approximately 8-10 inches, or until the back of the dickey scarf reaches the same length as the front sections. This will create a comfortable, cozy garment that covers your chest and neck without feeling bulky or constrictive.

Step 7: Finishing

Finally, you'll need to finish the dickey scarf by weaving in the ends and blocking it to help it retain its shape. Use a tapestry needle to weave in any loose ends, and then block the dickey scarf by wetting it and laying it flat to dry. This will help.
