Just pull your scarf through the fastener (which you can make in any of the matching colors and embellish with a button) and you`ll have a versatile, eye catching item for many occasions. You can add fringe or leave it without.

This crochet scarf is great stash buster, because it can be made with two strands of #4 worsted (or actually any of your favorite) yarn held together.

You can match it up with the Eccentric Beanie and you`re ready to go!

It`s a great last-minute gift for your mother, sister or a friend, the kind of gift they would enjoy wearing.
