06 Nov1,000 Lovely Things — Andrew’s Scarf

Andrew had asked me to make him a scarf earlier this year, so I decided to surprise him with one for his birthday!

Andrew's Scarf!

For the knitty-types, I used size 8 needles, seed stitch, 270 stitches across (it turned out a tad long, I would probably use around 225 next time.), and I have no idea how many rows. My favorite part, the tassels, were added with a large crochet needle.

See the pretty tassels??
