Scarf

Sew blocks along short ends in the following sequence: A, B, C, D, E.

Tassel (Make 2)

With C, wrap yarn around a piece of cardboard the length you want the tassel (the more wraps, the fuller the tassel will be). Slide a double strand of yarn under the top of the tassel and tie tightly. Cut other end open to remove cardboard. Cut another strand of yarn, wrap it tightly around the tassel several times a little below the top knot. Knot, and weave in ends. Attach one tassel each at top corners of hat.
