Warm and Cozy Scarf: Gift Idea #2

"Oh the weather outside is frightful..." Actually, today is a wonderful day with 51 degrees!! But I know the cold days are coming, like they always do in this side of the world. So what better gift that something to warm up those little necks when they are going to school and the teachers make them wait outside for the parents to pick them up.
This scarf, like almost all the things I have made, came to be because of my husband. Like the Purse, it was supposed to be a sock!! ja ja ja, I will tell you that story some other time.
Anyway, my husband said one day, as he was getting Estrella ready to go to school, "She needs a scarf, could you make her one?" I was in the middle of some other knitting projects, but my husband asked me so many times that I decided to make one right away instead of waiting until I was done with my other project.  It only took a weekend to make and when I was done, he said: " I think it needs some tassels."
So I put on some tassels, then he said, "why don't you put on a flower or something" So I did, you see, he is the one with the creative mind, I just make it.

The flower for this scarf is very different from my usual winter flowers. They look more full and puffy. I like them a lot.
So the following week, Estrella was wearing her scarf for school, she thought she looked fancy!!! I think it is a great gift for this cold weather, what do you think? Thanks for reading.
