Fun Fur Scarf

For the scarf pictured, I used Grey fur for the fluffy part and Tahki color no 6 for the 2nd strand as the base yarn to add more heft and some stretch for the scarf.
The whole project is knitted In the round. I use cable needles but double-pointed needles also work fine.

Different amendments to this pattern are easy to accommodate. I also like to add a contrasting stretchy color-changing yarn like Lion Brand Landscapes. Their Boardwalk has GORGEOUS colors and looks great for summer and spring palettes. For this scarf I went for more neutral tones so I could use it in business casual settings.

Scarf is knit from Top Down.
