It’s cold out, baby! This novel temperature (for Phoenix that is) gets me excited to pull out the scarves I used to wear up north.

A few years ago I knitted a scarf (my first actually!) and upon seeing it again I decided it needed a little flair. So, I unpackaged a nifty little tool I just acquired.

With the Knifty Knitter flower loom, I whipped out this pretty pink confection in under 5 minutes—no kidding! Then, I threaded the loose yarn bits through the scarf about 6 inches up so I could wrap myself up and tuck the end in. The flower looks like it’s pinned on, but actually it is fuss free.

It was so easy, I plan on “knitting” a few more flowers for my hair.
