It's been a year now since the woman who ordered this scarf originally contacted me with her request. I told her how much fiber it would take to make a good size scarf, and she said she would save it up. I didn't hear back from her until a couple of weeks ago when a package arrived in the mail with a bag of poodle hair! I had completely forgotten about it, since it had been so long, but luckily had saved her email. After getting in touch with her and finding out exactly what she wanted, I made this scarf.
It's seven feet long counting the fringe and eight inches wide, and is knitted on #8 needles. Very soft with little curls of the hair showing here and there. I purposely spun it that way in order to create a more interesting texture. She loved it and sent me this photo of her dog wearing it!
