Felix is a fun scarf to add to any outfit in any season. Knit end to end with minimal shaping, this is a fantastic project for a beginner who wants something with more interest than a rectangular scarf. Finished off with tassels, this scarf looks best when tied together for the perfect accessory.

This appeals to me, would give it a go ready for next winter.
Love this one for those great sock yarns that somehow never became socks. I have to give this a try.
