Hi…I called Morehouse not too long ago and they told me that the pattern for the scarf itself would be for sale as soon as they got around to updating the website. I’m interested in the alligator scarf pattern and the mittens. I’d gladly trade a copy of this for something you may want…I’ve got oodles of animal patterns and the like. You can email me at moerose13@yahoo.com for ideas.

I knitted the Alligator scarf in the Morehouse yarn and did not care for it. I would like to have a pattern for the child’s alligator scarf but cannot access the Morehouse website. Any ideas?

Hi, I too was curious if you have heard back from Morehouse about the pattern… My nephew would love this (he actually saw it in on of my magazines) and I really don’t want to be frustrated… not the feeling I want when making a gift.
Thanks! BTW, I love that color!

I’m knitting this exact same scarf! I love this pattern, it’s so cute, but you’re right, lots of little straw bits. But the scarf will be so adorable, I can’t pass it up!

I want to make the alligator scarves for Xmas but I don’t like hearing about the issues with Moorhouse yarns provided in the kit. Does anyone have the pattern and a recommendation for yarn to use? I want to make a baby alligator scarf as well.

I just knit the Lobster Mitts from Morehouse and hated the yarn because it was so fragile. I just looked and it’s the same yarn you’re using, but yours definitely looks sturdier. I admit I don’t know a lot about fibres so I know I’m probably not using the right terms, but the yarn just seemed to be in a near raw state – very fluffy like the stuff I’ve seen on cards and therefore very little structure. Are you having problems with it acting fragile and breaking?

I’d seen the dragon scarf before in green and it didn’t appeal to me but in red…
I really love it. It must be because I’m Welsh. I want one of my own and I shall call it Idris*.

I have made two of theses scarves and I had both come out a little different. I found the head instructions and little vague and with no stitch count at the end to match to I was never 100% positive I was making it right.
