My mom is really good at hinting about Christmas presents, and lucky for me, she mentioned wanting a scarf 5 days before Christmas... I floated around Pinterest for awhile trying to find a quick pattern, but no luck! So I found some thick yarn that I had bought for emergencies like this (LionBrand Homespun Thick & Quick) and made my own! This is my first time making a pattern and I haven't finished it yet, but I'm sure it'll turn out well enough. I will post pictures as soon as I'm done!
Here's the pattern for anyone who wants to try it for themselves. All I ask is that you don't sell this pattern because I took the time to make it. Otherwise, enjoy! Let me know how it works for you, leave a picture if you can!
