This isn’t just a scarf.
Oh it’s a scarf, that’s true.
But it is also a fabric-batting-binding-yarny-utterly-stash-busted-scrappy scarf. It is a free-motion-machine-slash-hand-quilted-hand-appliquéed-and-couched scarf.
This scarf is a soft and sweet lovey. Roll it up, it’s a cozy muff for your cold cold hands. Could it be a wall-hanging, you ask? Very astute of you, I reply.
In a pinch, it’s a stream-lined yoga mat. Or a multi-mug mug rug. Tie it around your head and your husband’s gypsy fantasies come true.
This scarf is a table runner. Wear it out dancing ’cause it’s a sash baby! With this scarf, you’re Queen Nefertiti for a day.
This isn’t just a scarf.
Or is it?
