At I Like Knitting, we have seen that the popularity of scarves has stayed strong…, so the innovation has continued. The Craft Yarn Council and its thriving community of passionate yarn experts have created a template for a magnificently colossal scarf that—literally—dwarfs regular scarves. This collaboration has resulted in I Like Knitting’s version of the Super Scarf, which is 10 inches wide, 84 to 120 inches long, and 100 percent full of trendy appeal. Just for comparison, your average scarf is about six to eight inches wide and 70 to 80 inches long—meaning the Super Scarf is over one and a half times larger! The bulky, bundled look of this style takes scarves from being a simple accessory to being the star of an outfit. This new fashion trend is everything a knit piece should be: cozy, eye-catching, and comfortable all at the same time. Thanks to the ground-breaking design, the beautiful stitching is on full display, and the sleek tassels lighten the entire look.
