WOW!  I can't believe you churned all those out in a week!  that is incredible!  now I'm ashamed.  I'm going to go work on my scarf right now!

as for making the fringe look more professional, what about trying this twisted fringe?  I've never tried it but I think it looks good:

Where on earth did you learn to crochet like that? I have been trying to learn to crochet for the past 2 weeks and I just can't figure it out! Any pointers? Is there a site that you learned the stitches from?

[sporkx71]

My younger sister taught me. my grandma taught both of us when we were very young and i forgot while she just kept up with it. so i had her teach me. its hard for me to learn from books because it just seems so confusing. im sorry i cant be any help.

That's okay! You scarves look absolutely great by the way...

LOL at your title!  That is SO me.  Anything new I learn I just go crazy with. 

Your scarves are so pretty.
