Triple Loop Scarf

Here's a beautiful, textured scarf I worked up a few weeks ago using the leftover yarn from Yarn Bee's Sugarwheel in Whipped Mocha.  Today, I finally put a border to it to complete it.

It measures approximately 5" in width and 51" in length.  I manipulated the leftover yarn somewhat by using the light shades for the base of the scarf and then the darker shade for my border.

As you can see in my pic collage, you can wear this several different ways.  However, this will largely depend on your body frame.  You can always adjust the size by making it longer (or shorter) if needed, to use as a waist sash.  I was just trying to give you several alternative options in how you don a scarf to compliment your fashion style.
