Harvest Time Scarf
I love to wear scarves to accessorize my outfits whether it is cold or not. They accentuate any fashion for the better. One thing that bothers me though, is sometimes the scarf keeps falling off, and you have to adjust them all the time. This is most noticeable during cold weather as you try to keep warm and the scarf falls off. That is why I decided to make this double-button scarf.
I wanted something soft, warm, and cozy. After looking around for a while, I decided to use this Bernat Blanket. I have used it before to make blankets and I love how it feels. It is very soft and soothes the skin as it keeps you warm.
Additionally, I decided to use a simple pattern that is quick and easy to make. This is a beginner pattern that uses only the double and single crochet stitches. The scarf is finished off with the double buttons to hold it in place. Well, with that, you are now set to enjoy your day with no worries of the scarf falling off or having to adjust. This pattern is perfect for making quick and cozy gifts for family and friends.

Notes
The scarf is made lengthwise with more stitches added to some rows to make the ties.
Button holes are made with a 3 ch st added to the end of the ties after the scarf is completed
Buttons are sewn around the site of the stitch markers on each end of the scarf, that is between the main scarf and the ties
The stitch marker is very important as it helps differentiate the end of ties and beg of the main scarf. Can use one stitch marker and move it from row to row
Ch 3 will always count as a stitch
Sl st in top of each ch 3 of previous row
Rows 7 is an incomplete row that ends at the stitch marker and row 8 is the same length. Row 15 is another incomplete row that ends at the stitch marker
