This has to be the easiest scarf to make. By the time Christmas arrives again I can have a tote full of gifts. The cost of the yarn is between $5.49 to $7.89. Since it’s so easy and takes 60 seconds I will spring into action when a yarn sale happens and arm myself with a 40% off coupon and my 15% off discount card.

Unwind the ball of yarn and lay it flat on the floor or table. Take one end of the yarn and match up with the opposite end, doubling your yarn. Using your hand and doubled yarn, make a slip knot leaving a 5” tail and adjust loop to width of your hand. Pull yarn through the loop to form a chain. Using the palm of your hand to adjust the size of chain. Continue to pull yarn through each chain formed until you reach 45”. Tie off. Knot each end three times and trim remaining yarn.
Yes you can! You can actually do up an entire scarf in about 60 seconds.
