This simple scarf was inspired by one that I saw in a certain high end department store catalog by a famous designer. Knit in a 70% merino wool and 30% acrylic blend, it was only $98.00! By two! Not!

Here’s my hack, knit on big needles in soft chunky llama. The best part is the yarn costs less than the store bought version, and you will have enough left over to make a matching pom pom hat (which in the catalog was $58.00).
