Fringe

 
Last night I adding some straight stitches in three of the four scarf colors to mimic fringe. I didn't use the blue Impressions since it would visually disappear against the overpowering blue sparkly background. After that, I did stem stitch using my light rose silk/wool Impressions on top of the ends of the scarf since knitted items are bound off on the ends. That made it look more real.
As you can see, the piece is finished but distorted. The next step will be to block the piece. I'll work on that tonight and explain how I did it tomorrow.
