Stash-Buster #28 - Gray Ruffly Cowl Scarf

Remember the small bits of yarn leftover from the Happy Scrappy Afghan?

Well there was a little more gray than the other colors,

 so the Gray Ruffly Cowl Scarf was born.

Made with with puff flowers (Aren't you glad I didn't use granny roses?)

 from the Easy Makes Me Happy free tutorial here.

But these have been changed to eight petals instead of six for ease in granny square conversion.

Joined together into a continuous loop using the join-as-you-go method.

With a border of:

Row 1 - sc

Row 2 - hdc

Row 3 - three dc and a bobble

Row 4 and 5 - sc

Row 6 - *Double V-stitch

*1 dc, a ch, 1 dc, 2 ch, 1 dc, 1 ch, 1 dc all in the the same stitch

then skip a stitch and sc then skip a stitch and another *dvs
Please note: the dvs trim is only one one side, the other side has a row of dc's.
I'd like to tell you that this was part of the design; however, it was not.
Shhhhhhhhh...don't tell anyone, but I ran out of yarn;
that's the beauty of the stash-buster, I suppose. :-)
(It's our secret, right?)

Found an old button in the button stash.

(Surely this one must be a Norwegian button, don't you think? :-) )

 The Cowl Scarf can be buttoned low or high as the button fits into any random space.

The edge can be folded over to make a "collar",
sort of like a vest,

or

tucked in as a scarf.

It's another stash-buster, it's part of this challenge:

Oh and also, be sure to check  CAL page for a new idea for the granny roses by Eve.

These could be a great stash-busting idea too. :-)
