The Willow Tassel Scarf is a straight forward garter stitch scarf with tassels attached at either end. Knit flat on 10mm needles, the Willow is a perfect starting point for beginner knitters looking for an easy knitting project.

Knit stitch creates such a satisfying squishy fabric which works perfectly here and, with a length of approximately 100in, the Willow Tassel Scarf will wrap around twice for ultimate warmth and cosiness. Perfect for chilly winters days and evenings alike.

This simple pattern is the ideal starting project for any beginner knitter, but is equally apt for those looking for an easy sofa project to inject some quiet, mindful moments into their day. Feel your mind start to quieten with the repetitive stitches and bask in the satisfaction of seeing your project work up so quickly in the super chunky yarn .
