NOTES:
HOW TO WORK WITH KISS KISS
This is a ladder-type yarn with
decorative boucle pigtails strung along a ladder (or railroad track) of yarn, into which the pick-up east-on and knit stitches are worked.
You will work into every space between
rungs of the ladder (please note that
there may be 2 or 3 strands of yam [joining the side rails of the ladder] between the wider openings- the wider opening counts as the pick-up area).
To cast on, you will "thread" the tip of the needle into successive openings in the ladder, picking up your "east-on" stitches.
 
SCARF
"Cast on" 3 stitches, as instructed above. Turn needle.
Row 1 * Place the tip of the right-hand needle into

the first east-on stitch and then pick up the next
space along ladder of the yarn by wrapping it around the needle as if to knit. Pull the new stitch through

the "east-on" stitch; repeat from * across row- 3

stitches. Turn needle.

Continue to repeat Row 1, until you are near the end of the hank of yarn.
NOTE: The scarf will naturally form a spiral.


Bind off all stitches knitwise.
