DIY: Martha Stewart's No Knitt Scarf

Here's a cozy yet speedy project.
No-Knit Scarf

Cut 12 pieces of bulky-weight yarn to about 1 1/2 times the desired length of the final scarf. (We used 140-inch pieces to make an 86-inch scarf.)

Divide yarn into 4 bunches of 3 strands each.

Tie 2 bunches together with a square knot, leaving 6 inches of fringe at end; repeat with remaining bunches.

Pin the knots to a piece of foam board.

Knot inner 2 bunches of yarn together, spacing knot about 1 inch from existing knots, then knot left and right bunches together.

Alternate knotting the inner bunches and the left and right ones, spacing knots evenly apart, until about 6 inches of yarn remain on the end.

Finish so that final knots mirror opposite end, and trim to even the ends.
