It's a DIY Christmas

This Christmas I've decided to make a lot of presents. It's fun, inexpensive and special. Here's one of the gifts I've made. The original idea came from Martha Stewart and the instructions can be viewed here.( Instructions for tying a sqare knot are here.)

In Martha's version she uses 3 strands of bulky yarn in 4 bunches. You can also use skinny yarn, as I did. I cut 6 strands into 7 bunches. She suggests using yarn 1 1/2 times the length you want your finished scarf to be. I recommend cutting it at least twice as long as you want it, if not more. If you are using more than 4 strands cut it even longer. The inside bunches are used twice as often and end up a lot shorter than the outsides.

This scarf is perfect for all skill levels and should only take about an hour to make. It's worth trying!
