Notes

I added a big button to keep the scarf secure in the wind. If you find the right one, I think it makes the scarf extra special. No button hole, just poke the button up through the scarf. I will be making these in all kinds of colors for “my girlies” this Christmas.

I like that you can wear it either way, button in front or the back. I also like to wear my scarves over my coat as apposed to under. This one is 4 skeins of Prism Sparkle from Mary Maxim, in Cobblestone. It’s a DK weight (3). I think I used a J hook to get the most out of the yardage.

4 skeins of Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable in Winery. Very easy to find in your local craft store and is a worsted weight (4).Great colorway for those of you who feel grey and black a bit bland. Reds, pinks, purples and a bit of grey. Ooo, add a bottle of wine when gifting this one! This giganto button is the perfect color, but is too big to poke through, so be careful when choosing a button.
