Kors Inspired Scarf!

A couple of weeks ago my friend came over wearing a gorgeous Michael Kors scarf! It was very simple so I decided to make my own version of it and make mine even easier! This is the Michael Kors scarf. It runs for about $48 at Macy's and is beautiful! It is called the Fisherman Stitch neck wrap. Cleverly enough, it is stitched using the fisherman knit!

I made my scarf just by using a regular knit the whole way through. I used a very heavy yarn that I had at home, which is extremely soft and thick, perfect for a scarf! I also used buttons that I already had but I plan to buy new, bigger ones when I get the chance!

For those who knit I cast on 15 stitches and knit the entire way until it measured about 40 inches long.
The Michael Kors style had actual buttonholes but because I used large needles I just used the holes in the stitches to put the buttons through!



I can wear it multiple ways and it is always warm! I think I have a new favorite accessory in my closet :)

  2. What friend was this?? I saw a girl walking on campus with a red scarf that looks very similar to this! I loved it. Maybe it was your friend.
