Hi friends! I have a very simple beginner's Knit Scarf (Garter Scarf) using Super Bulky Yarn so it's not so intimidating! You can do it! One thing I absolutely love about Garter Stitches is that you just knit each side (right and wrong side). The pattern for a selvage edge which just gives it a neater edge although I also love just the normal (knit each side) edge.
If you are an absolute beginner, just knit all stitches on both sides. Ignore the slip stitches at the begging and end of each right-side row and the purl stitches on the wrong side rows.

I've recorded a full video tutorial because I myself learned through YouTube AND I am a very visual learner. So I got you covered my visual learners!
I've decided to offer this pattern for free in the pdf version as well. I hope that this encourages you to keep kitting and enjoy your knitting journey!
You can download the pdf for FREE here and on Ravelry.
