Hello! I hope your week is going well! What have you done this week to spread love around you or to light your own light? I'd love to hear about it in the comments or on my Facebook! I have a maker market this weekend, the Valentine Gypsy Market, where I will be selling my little hearts (shown last week) with the proceeds going to charity!
And now, as I'm sure you've all been so eagerly awaiting...its time for my second pattern to be published! Yay!!! (Please imagine a gif of Kermit waving spastically here)

This is the companion piece to the Spectrum Slice Scarf that I showed you last month! With 2 Caron Cakes you can get both of these pieces if your gauge is similar to mine. Of course you could substitute any worsted weight yarn and still have a lovely outcome! I can't wait to see what you all come up with!

Break yarn and fasten off leaving a tail at least 12” long. Fold ends in thirds and sew together (like a gather). I do fold so that the end looks like a “W” or a Z-fold letter. Weave in Ends
Finishing: Make 2 pom poms with remaining yarn and affix to each end. The one shown used the Clover Pom Pom maker size Large (the blue one that makes 3 3/8” diameter); this meant going into a 2nd skein of Caron Cakes so if you want to keep to one skein you can make smaller poms or do tassels instead. If you want the big pom poms, but don’t know what to do with the remaining yarn of the 2nd skein, please see my Spectrum Slice Scarf pattern, they are companion pieces to use a total of 2 skeins together!
