Notes

This is the last of my stash of this yarn. I bought all that I could get my hands on when it was available. I’ve made many dozens of scarves and cowls with it.

The chenille poly yarn isn’t that great alone. It is the ubiquitous blanket yarn, seen in all sorts of bad colors. The limited colors with the faux fur pompoms: luxurious, fun and warm.

Red Heart Boutique Chic may still available online. Universal is making it, but it’s costly. There’s another similar one called Bunny.

This pattern works up very quickly and it’s beautiful. Made in one evening.

Cast on 60, very loosely. Cast off very loosely as well with JSSBO = Jeny’s Surprisingly Stretchy Bind Off, invented by the incomparable designer Jeny Staiman. Directions available online.
