Small Fry Scarf

Sometimes you just need a little something.

Simple and sophisticated, the Small Fry Scarf is a quick knit and the perfect way to add a bit of hand knit flair to your outfit. 

Small Fry is easy to style - wrap it around your neck twice for extra warmth or drape it loosely for a chic layered look. 

This crisp textured stitch is deceptively simple - comprised of just knit & slipped stitches!
