Yarn for Marine Scarves

Take a minute to see how much our Marines appreciate their scarves!!
See some pictures of Marines with their scarves.

The 3 yarns below are the yarns that have been approved for making the Marine scarves.

There is no need to worry that these are not 100% cotton or wool. They are needed most when the Marines and Sailors are on down time or under the wire (back at base).

The patterns call for 2 strands to be worked together. The ideal yarns are the Rococo and the Desert Sand. But for anyone that has trouble knitting or crocheting with a textured yarn like the Rococo may use the Lace Caron and the Desert Sand. Please DO NOT use all three yarns together.

See below for the Knit and Crochet Pattern used for the Marine Scarves. And the shipping instructions are below too.

Marine Scarf Pattern

The Scarf is made holding 2 strand together. The scarf needs to be 7 inches wide and about 42 inches long when finished.

As Quoted by the designer; "The scarf is worked with either Rococo + Desert Sand or Caron Lace + Desert Sand"

This project and scarf was founded and designed by the 3rd Battalion 2nd Marine parent network.

For more information about this and other projects for the Marines please see the MOM 4R MARINES Website.

The 2010 Operation Knit/Crochet for our Marines and Sailors has been implemented. The Goal this year is THOUSANDS of scarves!! We have more Marines overseas than in previous years so we need more scarves.

All scarves need to be mailed by October 31, 2010. To save on shipping for you and convenience for the collection point we suggest that you mail several together at a time.

For easy distribution please bag each scarf individually in a 1 gallon Ziploc bag with the air released.

Please mail or ship your scarves to:
Linda Chamberlain
156 Waverly Dr.
Southampton, PA 18966

Thank you Linda for being the collection point again this year!!
