SCARF:
With size 8 needles, using MC, cast on 36 sts. Work even in Garter St (k EVERY row) until piece measures 60" from beg. Bind off all sts.

FRINGE:
Cut 2 15" long strands of CC. Put strands together and fold in half. With crochet hook, draw center of strands through first stitch of cast-on edge of scarf, forming a loop. Pull ends of fringe through this loop. In this manner, make fringe in each stitch across entire cast-on edge of scarf. Repeat for bound-off edge of scarf. Trim fringe to even off, if necessary.

Special Note: The scarf shown in photograph has extra long fringe worked with single strand of Glace. The instructions above are written in brochure for short double fringe. To make longer fringe (as in photograph), cut hank of Glace in half. Each strand will measure approximately 27". Fold single strand in half and draw loop through each stitch in cast on and bind off edges.
