Fringe (Optional): Cut 44 (48) pieces of yarn 12½" (14") long. Holding 2 lengths together, fold in half forming a loop on one end. Working along short end of scarf, place fringe pieces evenly spaced by inserting crochet hook into short end of scarf; from back to front pull the looped end of fringe partially through the edge. Pass the loose ends through the loop, being sure to keep ends even. Pull taut.
