This was created from a free pattern (Caron (http://www.caron.com/projects/a_crochet.html) One Pound CN0942) I picked up at Joann's (http://www.joann.com/joann/). It was supposed to be an afgan. I just made the first ten rows from 3 colors (2 varigated and one solid) of this luscious Lion Suede (http://www.lionbrand.com/cgi-bin/yarnInfo.cgi?yarnPage=1694539) yarn. It's ridiculously soft! This little dark purple picot pyramids pop out of the scarf when you wrap it round your neck and make extra texture. It's quite long and wraps a few times. Now I want to make one for my boyfriend in manly colors. Aside from learning how to make a picot stitch (http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=how+to+picot&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=yCuDSa7GFITYNJbnyO4D&sa=X&oi=video_result_group&resnum=5&ct=title#), it was super easy ... just double crochets and I finished the whole thing in about a week.
