Rosita scarf

ROSITA is a very simple scarf worked with two strands of worsted weight yarn held double. I used almost 4 skeins of Manos del Uruguay Maxima in fuchsia/pink, inspired by my sister Rosario, just because it’s her favorite color and she loves huge cowls and scarfs. Color and size make this scarf a flashy garment. You can also make it multicolor or knit it with two different colored strands; make it shorter or longer. I used many yarn scraps from my stash (those I can’t throw…) for adding tassels.
