Key

Ewk = e-wrap knit

K = knit (u-knit or regular knit stitch may be used)

P = purl

2 stitch i-cord = *knit peg 2, then knit peg 1, continue from * until i-cord reaches desired length.

Pattern

Foundation row:  Chain cast on 24 pegs with 1 strand MC; join to work in the round.

Rnds 1-3:  *K1, p1, repeat from * to end.

Rnds 4-19:  ewk

Use a measuring tape and check that your knitting is 5 ½” inches, add rows here if necessary before doing border. For adult size, Work until knitting reaches 9 inches before doing border. Note: You may customize length of muff by adding or subtracting e-wrap knit rows in this section.

Rnds 20-22:  *K1, p1, repeat from * to end.

Bind off 22 pegs and begin 2 stitch i-cord on the last 2 pegs.

Keep knitting i-cord until it reaches 30 inches then bind off. To custom fit muff measure child from neck to waist (double measurement). It is better to make it long as it can be knotted at the back of the neck to shorten.

Seam i-cord to other end of muff, making sure it is even on both sides.

Finish

• Weave in ends.
• Optional: Make a bow using ribbon and attach it to one side of i-cord where it joins the muff.
