Bury me with my yarn stash!

I made this scarf out of left overs of Jiffy brushed acrylic and fun fur.  Threw it all in a basket, and knit as the mood struck....out came a scarf for my beach trip!

The pattern is very simple:

An assortment of bulky weight yarns as mentioned above, and a size 15 circular needle (36 inch).

I cast on 140 stitches leaving a long end to become fringe.  I cut the yarn at the end of each row (this end would become fringe), and left a long end and the beginning of each row when I added another color. I knit using two strands of Jiffy or 1 strand of Jiffy and 1 strand of fun fur combined. I knit two rows of each color, but you could do it as the mood strikes, or as the amount of yarn allows. Knot the loose ends together to make fringe when done.


My finished scarf measures 96 inches long by 3 1/2 inches wide, long enough to loop and pull the fringed end through.

I will try to post a better picture on my website at www.bilynsworld.com in the gallery.
