We had the EMS - Marlton Holiday shindig at our house on Sunday night. After we cleaned up the house and I helped prep the burgers, I had some spare time before everyone arrived. What better to do that go upstairs to my yarn stash and find something to make?!
This scarf is VERY quick to make. Its made with a bulky yarn, but I used a smaller crochet hook than recommended so that it makes a nice tight crochet stitch. One of the things I LOVE about crochet is that you never get that "curling" problem you get when doing a typical knit stockinette stitch. The scarf is made length-wise, the yarn is really soft and I think its gonna look sharp with a pair of jeans and my leather coat. I finished the whole scarf in two short evenings. I'm sure I could have done it in one if I wanted to. Enjoy!

Do a loose foundation chain so that the scarf isn't tight on one edge -- you can use a needle one-size bigger, if that helps
