Dropped Stitch Scarf.


This openwork scarf is so easy and
works up so quickly that you can finish
the whole project in just a few hours.
Using larger needles than the yarn calls
for makes for a very airy fabric with a
lot of drape. This particular scarf is
short so that the pompoms rest near
the neck, but you can make it as long
as you like.
