There is just something about a leaf scarf. I love to knit the leaves and they seem to help keep me interested in the project. Once complete I have a great new scarf that can be knit long or short.

The scarf is knit in two pieces and sewn to complete the scarf. The loop is created with short rows but can be substituted for a button if desired. Knit in any type of yarn and any length to make this scarf yours!
