This scarf was made using a cotton yarn. It is made similarly to the cowl I posted earlier.

What was your inspiration?
My daughter-in-law liked this stitch and wanted me to try to make something out of it.
What are you most proud of?
I learned best on a worsted eight yarn - this yarn was too hard at first. Once I got the stitch using the worsted weight I was then able to use this yarn successfully.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Practice the stitch until you get it down. I used a mop handle as it was the width I wanted and it was not as dirty as my broom!! (I did try a very thick knitting needle but it was too hard to keep stable so I recommend you stick with something that has a long handle.)
