AND IT IS A FREE PATTERN!
This is a self-fringing scarf. I kept seeing these young girls wearing these cute fringed scarves at the malls. I knew that I had designed a pattern for a self-fringing shawl long ago. I dug the pattern out and tweaked it to increase more quickly.
This is a great beginner project, since it is all done in knit or garter stitch. It is a simple pattern that anyone can knit in a weekend. It starts out with 12 sts and increases 5 sts in on each side on EVERY row. At the end you bind all sts except the first and last 5 sts. These sts are unraveled and tied in an overhand knot next to the body of the scarf to give your fringe.

| Here is my Mother's Day treat, my son helping his mom dig in the dirt. We transplanted 2 rose bushes from Poppy's house in this bed. Ben and Grace were wanting to plant a dwarf peach tree in that spot and I love roses, so we both won big on this one. |

| Gee the lad is tall, when did that happen? I don't exactly look pretty in the pic, but I am one happy mom! |

Glad you had a great time-I love the idea of planting it together-it makes a great memory! I have just the yarn for one of these scarves/shawl; I was given some yarn from a non-knitting friend who found it at a thrift store and knew I would enjoy it! And yes, it is perfect for this pattern! Thank you!
